Hey I was wondering if people could take a look at the set up and see if it looks good as far as moisture goes. She seems to be acting spidery as far as I can tell. She's eaten 5 or 6 times since I got her. She likes to hide from me, but not all the time! And she really likes to fill her water dish with substrate.

Agree with Cold Blood, it looks fine.

Also your "she" looks to be a he from the ventral shot.

The dark "triangle" and slight dot is screaming male to me, I have 2 juvie male and female mirandas and the female had a very obvious slit at even a small size.

It's not the best photo so maybe someone else can chime in.

Nice little set up!

I am no expert by any means, but I thought male too.

Pokies are an easy species to ventrally sex by about 2"....a molt isn't usually required, but a keen eye is.

Well dang. Could you take a look at these other ventral shots and see if it looks male? I wasn't really concerned with sexing it since it was sold as female.

Some of those are much worse than I thought but there are a few decent ones.
