I got her from the Outback Reptiles table at the Hamburg show. They said she had been taken in trade that day, so I doubt they'd have any info on her diet.

I tried leaving the f/t ovenight, put in front of her hide right before turning off the lights. She's been soaking in the water bowl a bit.

That makes it tough. I'm surprised they did not ask the seller though. I would always want to know if an animal I'm taking is feeding, and on what.
