Right ok thanks for that, it's my first royal and will be his first shed, I would prefer to not feed him until he has shed, I just thought he would have shed by now . He has become a little bit more active the last couple of days, having a little roam around and sticking his head out of hide, as opposed to last week where he was tucked away and didn't move for a week. He seems almost back to normal but hasn't shed! I'm trying not to handle him but I really want to spot clean in his hide but that would mean moving him? He has had a few of those white looking poops?? But no proper poop since I've had him? Which is around 6weeks..... Thanks
