    is my B smithi okay?

    i don't have the ability to change her enclosure at the moment, but i have a heat lamp (non light) and my humidifier running right next to the tank. it's about 70% humidity and 78 degrees F (25.5 C). it's fairly dry and cold where i am in NY.

    my B smithi has been kind of "bunched up" but not curled in like a death curl. She's only a sling (maybe 3 or 4 months old) and she's my first that wasn't already an adult. she's only molted once in my care, about a month ago.
