they are in shoebox racks. The hot end is 85. The others seem to be doing fine. They are kept on newspaper and I move the water bowls around so they get water every few days. She just stopped eating. Looks weak and shakes all the time. I put her in the water bowl and she curled up into a ball. Then I came back 90 min later and she was in the same position in the water bowl.
