he fits very snugly into his hides. if i didn't know better, i would think he is too big for them. but i know bp's like tight spaces so i let him be.

also, it was a mess up on my part. i meant he was checked for mites, not ticks. i got it mixed up because he had a tick that the vet had to remove. he is mite AND tick free now lol. sorry about the mess up.

and mackynz: i wasn't worried about messing up his eating. i stayed right by the cage and made sure he was ok. i just wasn't sure if i should move him or mess with him while he was eating would cause him to snap or go crazy on me. i would have helped him if he needed it. and i have learned since then that it wont necessarily hurt him or me if i do it, since like i said i was able to kind of tug at the mouse tail last night during his feeding (to mimic live feeding).

hope that clears things up...
