ok i just got back from my local pet store. i bought a thermometer and humidty dials. a bigger hide. i heat bulb new water dish and a brown mouse. i took him out and placed him in a tub and put the area together then replaced him with his "treat". the other owner fed him two mice every two weeks. is this adequate? i kinda feel like he was underfed and that is why he is "small" or "dwarf" as the previous owner called it. you all are awesome and thanks for your input. i love to get different perspectives on the same thing. i love learning all this new stuff.
