Im going to go to wall mart tonight and get a new thermometer/hygrometer the vet just told me to get strips when i took him. I also typical put a small blanket over half of his tank but i will find something to block out the side's perhaps aquarium backgrounds. I would really like to build him a better home but i had to get a car this week mine broke down so moneys tight. I'm planing to going to the reptile store in a little bit and see if they have baby rats i heard they are more fating and he has been skinny since the day i got him and hasn't been eating since he started shedding.Im hopping he will tonight. Oh and i have a heat pad but no thermostat i need to order one should i stop using the heat lamp?Also i will look in to hides but unfortunately that may have to wait a week.


What should i do if he wont eat? I read somewhere that if you take the pray and rub it on there nose there instincts will kick and they will eat but im not so sure of that?
