Haven't popped in for a while just wanted to share an update with Dorothy. She had started to interact with us more, food driven. She come out of her log hole when we walk by the tank, she is by the front door so she gets a bit of action. Anytime we walk by she come out. She is an eater! Sometimes I wonder if we're feeding too much or too little, but if she wants to eat we give it to her. She is growing, she's noticeably gotten bigger since we got her in October. Haven't weighed her for a while but I expect a few grams bigger. She's approximately 8 months now.

We found her on top of her log the other day, couldn't believe she climbed up there all on her own! I made a dirt ramp now so that it's easier for her and she enjoys the "view".

I see you're in Fort Lauderdale.
I'm nearby in west Sunrise 33322.
I have a few extra T5 UVB Linear strip florescent fixtures. Both 5.0 and 10.0.
I'd be happy to give you one. It looks like you might be using a more dangerous, less suitable uvb type.
(I believe I made this offer previously.)
PM me for address or phone number details and I'll give you one.
