Does he look ok? Still hasn't shed ??

[SRMD]

I need to make some changes, I can't have this happening again, need to find the problem . Thinking of downsizing his enclosure as he never moves so think he a little scared in there , I'm not sure what sort of setup is best, housing , heat , substrate..... As must be something wrong , humidity or stress ?? Or do these things just happen for no apparent reason?
Thanks

You could make your own tub, use paper towel as substrate, I made my own tub and constant kept good humidity and temps.

Where do you keep your BP?

In a corner of my living room, you think move him to a quieter room?

You could maybe move him to a smaller room where heat is more contained, once he's bigger etc you can then maybe move him back
Into the viv you have now, I had my BP
In a tub for 3 years UNTILL recently

What ambient temps did you have in your tub?
None of my rooms go above 70f for any length of time at this time of year

Maybe you could use mini room heaters, halogen heaters?

I may do some experimenting with a tub and heaters in a room, failing that I will have to stick with ceramic heat and provide a humid hide permanently I think

That could be the easiest solution you can buy exo terra caves that act as a humid hide they come with moss, also check out cork bark you can use this to fill your viv with they are big pieces of log good hiding places, when I bought mine i sterilised them and put them in the oven for 30minutes just to be safe.

You just need to add more decor and add places that you can see your BP so he can feel safe and maybe he'll start roaming around more.

Yeah I did worry about that large bark wood if it carried bugs, so you just bake them first ?
Also he has had around 6 consecutive meals now but hasnt done a stinker yet!
