Thank you very much for this, I'm dealing with a bad shed on a brand new BP and i would have been extremely paranoid about putting it in a container with a lid. To make myself feel better would i be able to put some small holes in the lid? Not big enough for him to escape. or would that defeat the purpose?

My baby ball just had her first shed, but it was bad. I am wondering if this might cause any stress to her?

Sorry if the answer is in the thread,but I didn't read through the whole thread. But what temp should the water be in the soaking tub be?

Ok so I've had my lil guy about a month. I'm feeding him 1 adult mouse every 5 days and he hasn't shed yet. Should I be feeding bigger food? Hes 3 or 4 months old. I live in STL and can't find a rat breeder so it's just petco right now. Either adult mice or huge rats.
