Need Help!

Can you suggest one? I'm going to try my best to get what I can as soon as possible. But right now, what can I do? i sprayed the tank down a bit inside with a spray bottle to get the humidity up and put him near the water I have in there.

What have you changed so far?

Take a look at this Tank Set Up sheet:

As everyone else said, get a thermometer/humidity reader combo from Walmart. It's called 'Acurite indoor outdoor thermometer'. It's about $12. You place the probe on the hot side of the tank and the thermometer unit on the cool side.

Second, you can buy plastic bowls from the dollar store, cut a little opening, and use them as hides. The small sized ones are perfect for hatchlings. Place one hide on the hot side of the tank and another hide on the cool side. A tight fitting hide will give your snake security. Balls feel the most secure when it can touch all sides of a hide.

Don't try feeding your little guy until he is completely settled down. Everytime you try to feed him, you're stressing him out. After you fix his set up, leave him be for at least a week without bothering or touching him. This gives him time to adjust to his new settings. After that week, try feeding again.

A pedialyte(found in he baby section in any grocery store) bath will help hydrate him.


Fixing your husbandry is the first steps to a healthy snake.
Hopefully your little guy doesn't have a neurological or other physical problem.
