Revy decided to dig on exactly the right spot, pulled on the cord to her temperature sensor and displaced it tonight. Now her terrarium is sitting at an uncomfortable 31.5°C ambient temperature on the hot side. The cold side is still okay at like 28°C, but it’s slowly creeping up.

Wouldn’t be a problem, if I wasn’t 650km away on vacation. Or if I hadn’t specifically decided against leaving a key to my apartment with a friend or neighbor because I didn’t want to bother them. Completely my fault lol

Anyways, the flight back home is 100€ and the 10 hour bus drive back to my vacation spot is 50€. I wouldn’t have bothered to go back, but this was literally the first night of the trip and I have 5 more days planned. I was visiting my fiance who I haven’t seen in 2 months because he had to move across the country for work 🥲

update: the baby has been rescued! She seems perfectly fine and unbothered, although a bit warm to the touch.

update2: Man, she sure is out to worry me. I took her out to cool down while I adjust and recalibrate the sensor. When I let her back in, she crawled straight to her basking spot (32-35°C surface day temp, 28°C surface night temp) and stayed there until like 3am. Wth does that even mean??
