Hi all, I'm a new member and a new western hognose mum,
I've read a bunch of posts but I have some drinking and pooping worries I hope I could get help with, I apologize for the long post.

A month ago I got two hogs, an alleged boy(currently 56g) and an alleged girl (currently 46g), first kept them in the small containers I got them in, two weeks later moved them into bigger containers with about 3-6cm aspen. Temperature is 23ish Celsius in the cool corner and around 29 in the warm corner, keeping humidity around 40-45%. Setup in the pictures.

In the small case, i had deep water bowls they originally drunk from in the reptile shop, but I noticed the boy wasn't pooping, and the girl's poop was powdery, so I called the reptile shop and they said this is probably the result of dehydration. They said I should drip water on their noses from my hands (no reaction other than them running away) and pointing their noses into water. I woke up to my boy bathing and pooping, success.
this was before moving to the big container, and after the move two weeks ago he had only pooped once, and I have a feeling he is not drinking again. He is active and eating twice a week. Girl was pooping every day for the second week I got her, now she is occasionally pooping, approximately once a week,but looking skinny, not very active, very nervous and started refusing food a week ago (may or may not be a separate problem).

Concerned about dehydration, I additionally got them little plates of water which they would accidentally walk into and hopefully realize it's water and drink, I've also pointed their heads into the water a couple of times since the move.

The water in small plates does disappear sometimes but I have a feeling they may be spilling it, as aspen around the bowl gets wet.
Questions: how can you be sure that your hog is drinking, does it drink quite a lot so it's obvious?
How frequently do they usually poop? Is once in 10 days a cause for concern? What is healthy poop for them?
i am concerned and wondering how I can make sure to get them drinking, and I wanted to get some opinions before I stress them out by a trip to the vet which I am not sure is necessary or not.

thanks in advance!
