I have been accused of SPOILING her

ecb Aug 15, 2003 07:00 AM

maybe I M silly, but I got her some fish yesterday
just 7 little feeder fish, since I have a ready made pond, I thought it would look nice if nothing else
She has not found them yet, I wish I could be there when she does see them the first time

We are going away this weekend, so I M going to do the full-feed-dish trick I read about here (leave her 8 worms for the 3 days)

She was still on her stick last night when I got home, did not seem to be moving around at all. The A/C unit had frozen over, so the room was a bit warmer than normal, but her tank temps were ok (85.5 in hot area, and 76 in cold) and she was just hanging out in the hot area under the lights
Does this sound ok? Its just that she has been SO active lately, then last nigth she was just a lounge lizard (sans microphone)

I wouldn't worry yet. I would guess the warmer temps had her feeling a bit sluggish. I know the heat does that to me! LOL!

Mine are pretty much lounge lizards all the time until they see me. Some react by scratching the glass when I am in the room, other wait until I drop the worms in the bowl and then its a full fledged feeding frenzy! They don't run, they just drop off of their branches and hit the bowl in one jump! Well, this may be a bit exagerated, but not by much!
