I've had Nadd since yesterday, and although it's killing me to not get her out, I am resisting. The problem is that she has now decided to trash her viv and managed to push both her hides over!!! Here comes the problem, I can't rearrnge her viv without taking her out, and leaving it as it is she has no effective hides. I have got an exoterra smal cave hide for her which she won't be able to move so much and am wanting to put this in. Any ideas on what would be best, move her breifly, or leave her till I can take her out properly?
p.s. sorry for the rant |

| Just handle as little as possible, move her to one end and sort the other end out. |

| I would take her out and put her in something while you change the viv things around. If you leave her in you could knock her which would cause her to hide away more for the next few days. |

| Aslong as its big eough for her to lie flat in its fine for a short amount of time. Just make sure it doesnt smell of mice and so it wont trigger feeding mode. |

i had a similar dilemma when i first got Marilyn, she managed to tip her water over every day for the first week so she ended up being handled pretty much from day 1. not ideal but when you have the contents of a huge bowl to tip out of a RUB (never mind mop up!) it was kinda a neccessity  |
