How to "cure" dehydration

[CoolMantid]

My female H. Majuscula has been having hydration issues. Last week she ate a waxworm but now she is dropping food again. I misted he and she face planted into the lid and started drinking. This was an hour ago. Should I do this periodically throughout the day. or is there a better way to cure dehydration?

If she stays thirsty, I usually do add water during the day, try a pop lid, let her see or feel it in front of her when giving it, see if she takes it that way, my handicapped girls do.

I mist 1-2 times a day through a screened lid. How to cure dehydration? HYDRATE! :lol:

When I think I cured it she always face plants and continues drinking

Do you stop drinking if you're still thirsty? Think about it.
