Re: I shouldn't have... 0.1 100% dwarf burm
Two water dishes are good for keeping humidity way up too! I wouldn't glue them to the enclosure though, just glue a big base on the bottom of each dish and bury that under the substrate. They've held up for some pretty heavy carpets and bredlis at work, I'll bet they hold for her.

I currently have no problems keeping humidity up, she keeps spilling her water bowl, she's not doing me any favors.

Re: I shouldn't have... 0.1 100% dwarf burm
Sounds like my blood lol.... I forgot that was a problem though haha, guess humidity would't be a problem...What about using something to connect the 2 water dishes? That way the other dish helps hold up the other one. Just hot glue a meter stick under them or something?

Re: I shouldn't have... 0.1 100% dwarf burm
I'm not sure yet, that's why I contemplated hot gluing the base and then using a second tupperware dish placed inside to easily remove and change out the water as needed.
I'm glad I'm not the only other person up at this ungodly hour.

I'm always up all night lol... What about a PVC ring glued to the bottom of the cage? Place the dish inside it, and she can't do nothing but drink or soak in it. Not really sure how big they get though.

Gloves? Check. Hook? Check. Long sleeves? Check. I was able to get her out and she didn't even strike, granted she was quite the handful and super flighty, but hey, at least now I can start working with calming her down.

Awesome! Can't wait to see she if she can become as docile as a normal burm. Good luck!

Re: I shouldn't have... 0.1 100% dwarf burm
Have you tried a different food source? One of my burms absolutely refuses to eat rats but she'll eat chicks. I've also tried rabbit pinks and she doesn't like them either. As soon as I can find quail I'm going to see if she'll take that.

I'm offering the exact thing the breeder I bought her from offered her.

Re: I shouldn't have... 0.1 100% dwarf burm
still hasn't fed. But she was at least interested last time, however she's in shed now so that may have been why she refused. I'm also getting some jumbo rats for her this weekend. I've been offering mediums to this point because a) that's all I had and b) I wanted her to eat for me before I offer her her normal sized food.
I'm actually pretty sure I heard the beginnings of her rubbing her skin off when I was getting ready for work this morning. I'm hoping that's the case.
