She is in a 20 tall, Which I thought could be the problem, except she seems to love her cage, shes always digging in the calcium sand, or climbing up her tree. I use red heat bulbs and they tend to not get as hot as a regular spot light basking. I have stick on thermometers on both ends of her tank, and used a digital thermometer when i first set up the tank. I live in a older farmhouse and it is winter here in Michigan. So its a bit chilly in my room, prolly 65ish, but the snakes are kept away from any windows and are blocked off from any drafts. So their tank temps dont seem to be affected. I certainly do not want to resort to full time scenting so ill take your advice and hold off for now, but my only concern is her not eating regularly on a schedule, Everything I read says Hognose babies should eat every 4-5 days and shes at like 9-14 days.
