Today's Heat Conservarion Position

danktat Mar 04, 2007 11:28 PM

And from just now scanning in at 87.1° (once again not on the heat). I have noticed that this girl is usually stretched out when over the heat then goes into HCP when she leaves it. So far she seems to like it between 86° and 88.5°----rarely over 89° or below 85°----though I have seen her a bit above and below for very short periods of time.

That little mini-meal she had a couple of days ago looks like she ate an XXXL. Not alot of room left for the food to sit I suppose...lol

this was that extremely small meal (at least for her)

She seems to be doing well as a mommy.

She's looking good and a very nice looking Surinam!
Be careful with the food though. 1 1/2 years ago I fed my gravid female a much smaller rat than that and she ended up giving birth prematurely. I think that as she was trying to pass the digested rat, she lost control.
