am i interrupting by asking a real live bp question?

shelby514 Nov 19, 2003 11:23 AM

maybe i am just like a new parent...just a little (ok maybe a lot) more paranoid, cautious, and proud than i should be. but anyway, just a question on his temps. i have the hot side at 90 ground temp and its 84 in the air, his cool side is about 80 ground temp and 76 in the air. he'll stay in his cool side all day and typically only venture to the hot side at night when the ground temps are down to about 80 hot, 75 cool. should i lower the temps all around? maybe its too hot? he's seems happy (maybe just extremely tolerant), relaxed, and eating. eats once every five days, no matter what time of day, how bright it is, or how many people are standing around. he came out and ate yesterday morning as the cat sat on the other side of the glass yowling at him. yep, there it goes again...new parent disease.....thanx in advance for your thoughts!!!!!!

It's great that you are so paranoid, though! Tells me you are committed to great care!
