    Refused to eat after shed
    My bp just finished a bad shed. It was his first shed with me, and I'm in the process of moving him to a tub to sort out humidity. I've been soaking him for the past few days until his last eyecap came off yesterday, and now he's fully shed.

    I attempted to feed today as he was due a feed. He refused however. Is it normal that they might not eat after a shed? Particularly a bad shed? Should I just attempt again in about 5 days? Have I any real cause for concern yet?

    You just switched cages didn't you? Between that and the soakings, it may have been enough to stress him out. One missed feed isn't a big deal. Just make sure temps are correct and stable. Let him chill out for a bit and you'll have him eating in no time. Wait til next week before trying again. :D
