I forgot to add something: Apparently for the last month and a half he has refused to eat. Maybe hes just not hungry. I duno. Im way to green at this and kinda just hit the ground running. He never really comes out from under his rock either.
And as far as the bedding goes... its what was in it wen it was given to me. I was just gonna buy what the guy at the store recomended...
O, and ok, no pest strips, check.
