The shed on her tail is finally coming off! After months and months of soaking her it's just hanging off her tail. I'm waiting for her to let it fall off I took someones advice on here and went out and bought a black tubberware bin and cut a hole in it and flipped it upside down, I filled it with coconut fibers and moss and soaked it and made sure it got real warm. Ever since I cant seem to keep her out of that box! Recently her back started to shed too, but I think now that she has a nice moist humid box that will be off in no time as well. I also think she is coming out of hibernation a little bit too because she came out of her box twice today(unusual)..sooo i tried feeding her and I had to watch my fingers...a lot different then before when I wanted her to eat I'd have to dangle the cricket in front of her face then keep dropping it by her and making the cricket move for her to eat it. Hopefully, she will pass stool more often too, in the last few months she has only been going once or twice a week..
