I know I let Tico get use to his indoor enclosure for about a week before I even tried to move him to his outdoor enclosure, but then again he was eating from the second he came to me.
Yours will be fine just keep up what your doing and use the tips you've gotten so far.
Thanks I appreciate the encouragement!

If she's always over on the warm side and avoids the cool side, it COULD be an indication that its not warm enough. You might want to try lowering the basking bulb a couple of inches and see what happens. Ideally they should want to move around the whole enclosure throughout the day. However, I don't think this minor thing is significant enough to be causing your problem.
I also agree that you've done a fantastic job with the set up. Great work! Do keep us posted.
thanks Tom, i'll give it a try.
