    I would say leave him settle (no handling) until the next feedind day, and try what i suggested. If it doesnt work, consider live, i have tips for that too

    Consider the hide that i reccomended. A medium would be good, and you might wanna add more plants and stuff, to make more cover for him

    He is scheduled to feed again on Saturday/Sunday. I will let you know what happens then. Thank you for all the suggestions. The no handling part is going to suck because I've gotten into the habit of getting him out of the tank when I get home from work and he pretty much hangs out until bedtime. Can you over handle them??

    If you dont have one you need a thermostat, severe burns are not to mess with. Im getting a jumpstart, ive heard everyone uses them and they are really good, that uth is a time bomb without it

    That's on my list among other items suggested. I think I'm spending more on husbandry than I did on him. Don't get me wrong, he is so worth it.

    He does, he is really beautiful, most likely the next morph i will get, this is my shopping list https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...fe1703def2.jpg
    The acurite thing gives you humidity, cool side temp and hot side temp, all in one, the thermostat is apparently the best one out there, and the temp gun is because im really paranoid for burns. Whatever you get i hope your baby will be fine. Health wise, he looks great, just get him to eat, any other questions and everyone here will help

    I can't thank you guys enough. I will be taking you list with me to the store. I guess I'm just a paranoid new mom then. I'm sure I will have more questions going forward and I will keep you updated on his next feed.

    I did not see that he always feels cold. He shouldnt, when i pick up my bp (after they have been ober their heat pad) they are warm

    Yes you can, they will get stesse and go off feed. I handle 30 minutes a day (but after feeding i wait two days), because i have two 6 month old bp and im still taming them
