I've actually noticed he looks a little bigger.
He still hasn't shed and doesn't appear to be going into shed yet. How often should a baby BP poop?
He will probably be shedding soon then. Mine almost always have a huge poo when then shed :) Oh you just wait!
Re: New BP and First Setup
Everybody else has adressed pretty much everything. I just wanted to add my input on a few things. You should change the water bowl, get the dog water bowl they sell at petco, or petsmart, or any pet store I believe. It's big enough so that if he wants to fit in he can, also those hides are way to big, and too tall, get the Zoo-Med Exo-Terra hides.
Re: New BP and First Setup
He can fit in the waterbowl but I may get a bigger one so he has a bit of space around him. He hasn't gone in it before but I'm sure he can fit. The hides look alot bigger than they are on the inside. They aren't very tall and he fits inside with minimal space around him. Since it's such a close fit and he's still growing I'll wait to get some new ones. He eats just fine and is nice and calm when he's out of his cage. Seems to be pretty happy.
I was just worried he might be constipated and I figured a growing baby would have at least started the shed process by now.
