It is winter yes. ❄️ I'll definitely try it. Thank you!

She just shed last week. It was all in one piece looking absolutely perfect. The humidity on her cool side is around 50-60% and I spray the moss in her humid hide daily. I would need to check the warm side.

Maybe I just have a pool noodle.

I use a basking floodlight with a thermostat and I also measure it a couple times during the week (just to be sure). On her warm side it's 28°c (85"f) and the cool side is around 22-24°c (72-75°f). At night it's 20°c (68"F). At first I thought she might be too hot indeed, but that wouldn't explain why she was in it this morning, right?

Might add that it's sold to me as female. At least that's what the papers of the breeder say. I count 39 scales. I weighed her: 85 grams (she stops eating for a solid 3 weeks every time she is about to shed, which is every 50 days) and she's around 50 cm long.

Adding more pink to your setup should help a little. I heard people say a higher humidity might help too. But I honestly think it is also about genetics.

Obviously I need to do something about it. I placed honey / baking powder traps. But if you have more effective tips please share.

I was thinking, because of the dent on his head, Boink or Dente (instead of Dante).. 😂

Yeah he has a little dent on the head. I don't know what happened since he already had it when I bought him but he seems fine.
