    Humidity should be 40-60, 70 when in shed. What is your substrate? How big is you water dish? A larger water dish over/under your heat source will help. You can also put damp spaghum moss in his hide to help with humidity during shed. So will Eco earth substrate. Your hides should be identical. Your snake may not like the log, and may not properly thermo regulate if he doesn't like that hide. Bps need to feel very secure and like hides that provide them that feeling. If he has a favorite hide because they are different, he may not go to the other one. Also what are the temp and how are they controlled? Could be he is cold over there. Lastly, if your bp is "blue" I would wait until after shed to feed him. It won't hurt him to wait. Most won't eat when blue. The fluid clouds their eyes, and they can't see as well. Good luck with your new bp, and welcome!
