Setup is two hides exactly the same water bowl in the middle. Hot hide is 88-93 Cold hide is 78-82 Humidity is around 50-70. Have an UTH under the hot hide with a small amount of aspen and then about an inch of aspen on the cold side an in his cold hide so he can burrow. Also have a small lamp with an inferaed buld to keep the ambient temps up.
When I fed him first he ate a medium rat just fine. I have tryed mediums again but he never takes them. I tryed a small rat last night and he just ignores it and keeps trying to get out of his tank.
Ill try and get a pic of the tank but i dont have a camera =[
He shed about a month ago or so.. His shed was perfect all in one piece. After his shed he did have mites. The mites are now under control thou. Im useing aspen bedding now since the mites are gone but i was useing paper towels for ahwile when he did have mites.
And i only feed F/T. Making sure the rat is around 100 degrees befor feeding consideing 100 is around the rats normal body temp.
