Hi all,
My Smithi has always spent a lot of time on the heat mat on the back wall of her tank, since she molted 3-4 days ago she has been on it ever more, pressed right against it, is she too cold? Do i need to add more heat some how?
Her tank is 18x12x10" and the heat mat is 4x7" across the back, my room temp is generally about 20-21 C.
I was thinking I could buy another heat mat and put it under one half of the tank, I know spiders may burrow if they are too hot but I have never seen her dig down and I would keep a very close eye on her.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks
Nick
