question

I have a quick question. Today my uro did not come out of her hide. Usually she does like 3 hours after her lights go on. I picked up her hide to see if she was alive and she ran up onto her basking rock but as soon as I put the hide back in she ran back under it and hasnt been back out since. Could I have stressed her that is why she wont come out? I only picked it up to see if she was ok. She ate yesterday and was out all day as well. Should I be worried?

Check the temps and humidity in the cage and make sure they are normal. She may just be having a "bad day" as some of us do. If it lasts more than 2-3 days I would suggest a vet visit, just in case.

Thanks....She did this once before like 3 weeks ago but then the next day she was fine. So maybe it is a bad day or I stressed her out when I picked her hide up. We will see what happens tomorrow.

Mine do that from time to time.I think they like to take siestas once in a while.Keep an eye out though to see if she is eating alright.
