Being away at college I always get nervous to leave my bp with my parents. But after 4 months away at school, all is well.
They are constantly checking his temps and what not, keeping up his husbandry. I have a hydrofarm thermostat to regulate the heating pad. I have an accurite thermometer to regulate everything else. So all is well :]
He has been off feed for a couple months. But he did the same last year. I figure due to breeding.
In the past four months he has managed to gain almost 500 grams! Which is amazing. He is now around 1800 grams.
But I have a few questions. I haven't ever had an adult bp at this weight. And I know as they get older their shed cycles are farther apart. But he was in the blue two weeks ago and still hasn't shed. Is that normal? I'm so used to them shedding after about a week of being in blue.
His humidity is great, and he gets "baths" or soaks every couple weeks.
Also... his tank has mites... wood mites. They have been an issue in the past before. I have cleaned his tank so many times and baked the wood in his tank many times. Even my parents have. So why wont the wood mites go away?
