Caught my Annabelle soaking in her water dish...

I looked it up and all it has is about mites and bad sheds...

I took her out tonight for a few pictures. After i put her in her viv i caught her soaking, passed it off as if she was warm and cooling herslef. Later this evening she was still in there, i looked her over carefully and there are no mites.. (cant be the temp, there is an 11wat bulb in there and the lights have been out long enough to cool) i dont have her last shed logged... (if i remember corectly it was towards the end of the month) any ideas?

I think sometimes they just do it. I have no concrete proof of this, and could easily be wrong, but I've been thinking about it since this morning actually. The first thing I saw when I went to work this morning was one of our BPs soaking. Like you mentioned, he has no mites, he's healthy (except for progressive blindness, unfortunately), and he just shed about two weeks ago... :shrugs:
