Re: First time shed for new owner
My apologies for the photo size. I didn't want to shove my phone all the way towards him, last thing I wanted was to scare him Into striking. He was sitting briefly along the back side of his enclosure behind the water dish, rock and drift wood when I went to mist his enclosure, but when I checked back later he has moved back to a hide.
The only reason I might not go to only one misting a day is because I'm in California and right now our humidity in general is 45% in my area, plus we have a dry heatwave etc.
Thanks for the replies so far! I'll definitely post an update when hes started to get further into the shedding process.

Shed update: when I went this evening to check on Leviathan and
Mist his tank I found that he had successfully shed. My question now is if I should immediately go out and secure his normal food amount or wait for his usually feeding day on monday?

He went into shed Monday Oct 5th. His last feeding day was Monday Sept 28th. I was gonna go today and get his usual 2 fuzzy rats and see if he was hungry.

Guess there’s nothing wrong with trying him with one first and thaw the other the day after he he eats the first one ..
That said leaving it till Monday would be fine ...
