My Balls eyes are blue/gray???

Hey my ball's eyes are or have turned a blue gray foggy instead of the normal black.. Oh fyi.. He is now eating 2 pinky & 1 fuzzy.. Progress I hope... I have added another under ground heater to help keep at 80 in the tank now.. So no dropping down to 75..

Peace all new pics to come soon ..

His eyes are blue because he's getting ready to shed. Make sure your humidity is good to help him along! :D Glad to hear he's doing good.

Really.. cool.. 1st shed then for me.. Hope I make it through it:w00t: So what is the ideal humid?? Also how long does it take for a shed? Also will he stop eating? do I still pick him up? Do I do all as normal?
Humid is currently at 45 to 50... Should I mist?
Oh and last night was the first night I actually seen him "full" so to speak..

Umm, i'd say about two weeks to shed. He already started before his eyes turned blue. Took about a week after the blue eyes for me. Humidity around 70-80% for shed mode.

I wouldn't hold him, would just annoy him. I didn't feed in shed, just waited till the day he shed to feed him.


:salute:

there is a sticky on the shedding process it is a step by step you should check it out:gj:

Ok I found the "sticky" no pics or they didnt work..
So how do I get the humid up to 70? and when do I do this?

Get the humidity up to 70 now. I do it by using a wet towel.. errr. a damp towel. I get a towel wet with hot water and then ring it out, put it over most of the lid and switch it out every day. Should keep the humidity pretty high for you. You could also build a humid hide.

There should be a sticky or something for it.. just search humid hide.

misting is a decent way to make some humidity in the whole tank/setup, but what you want to do, is to offer a humid hide for him....best thing to do there is to put some damp moss/or even moistened papertowel down under his hide so it stays humid to help him shed his old skin

Ok will do as soon as I get home after work.. Thanks..
I thought he was a bit crabby yesterday when I held him..

ok so I have put a damp cloth over the top .. I now am wondering if the mesh screen will begin to rust??? Also it did help but now I am only at 60 humid.

So should I mist my ball with water? when and how much?
