Re: Please help
well i'm not sure about the lethargic part but not having passed any stool in that amount of time is no big deal. he'll go when he needs to, sometimes it is longer in between than other times. does he have any other symptoms other than being lethargic?

Okay talked stuff over with a friend, she settled my mind a bit, more newspaper balls. He favors one hide over the other so i will try to get one that is identical to the one he likes on the other side as well. Will get rid of the one that he never uses regardless of what side it is on. More air holesl I can just cover them up to increase humidity if need be later. Etc, any more suggestions?

Re: Please help
he's probably just fine. from the pics of him in your gallery he looks to be nice and healthy. often their tail area will look a little deflated after they relieve themselves of a large load.

No Offense, but do you always just repeat what others have said? I mean, I have seen you add your two cents in several times after my questions have been answered and all you do is say things like what's above. It's really annoying. If you don't have anything to add that will help. Please just don't it can be really hard for someone that is new like me to get to know who to trust on here. I don't know you from adam (no pun intended) but you give more advise than anyone else here, but only after everyone else chimes in. When you do give advice before anyone else it's almost always corrected.
