I believe you said you don't mist. How do you hydrate but it still looks dry in the picture? This really has me stumped. When I mist I try not to wet the moss. I do have moss in there but she didn't seem interested. Like you said probably to wet. I lowered a basking light to warm the substrate and that seemed to interest her.



It's been 48 hours and the oxytocin hasn't worked. I'm soaking her and giving her calcium and electrolyte solution by mouth. I have massaged her belly lightly downward trying to stimulate her and today I gave her a dose of mineral oil. (That seemed to work once before). Is there anything else you could suggest? I really don't think I can do the aspirating thing. I'm afraid I would do it wrong and hurt her even more.
