My Hatchling Is Finally Eating, But Is He Emaciated?

[Snoop_Dong]

What kind of tub are you using? Mine is a Sterilite style 34 quart. I made small holes along the side with a soldering iron for ventilation. If I want to cover some up, I can just put tape over them from the outside and the humidity level will go down. If I need less humidity, I can make more holes. That's the general idea.

I use Natural Chemistry Healthy Habitat Pet Habitat Cleaner and Deodorizer for cleaning. Costs about $20 for a gallon and I just spray and wipe everything down with it.

I actually believe i might have the exact same tub you have haha. Though i have to apologize for previous comments regarding temperature my poor BP Jörmungandr just had liquid diarrhea which i believe is due to the colder temperature . Though i am glad because i checked on him (he was on top of my bed on a hide while i cleaned his cage) and noticed that all his bulge was towards his but and asked myself "Why is all his bulge towards his tail?" then as if i spoke of the devil his urate began to emerge through his large intestine. I panicked because i had taken all his paper towels out so i pointed his butt like a water gun at the paper towels (I did this all very gently he was in no panic and even relaxed enough to poop with me holding him) and he started pumping out liquid diarrhea. I had read that BP's poop doesn't smell that bad but i mean THAT WAS A LIE i was near gagging when i caught a whiff of this monstrous smell. He must've done a quickie because it was 2 pump n out type deal . Now i was paranoid and did a lot of research and i doubt it's parasites because he's pooped fine previously but i do believe it was due to his colder temperatures of being in the low 80°F's . I feel bad for my incompetence that he had to improperly digest his meal. He does look REMARKABLY better as a whole unit but his neck still is very saggy while the rest of the body now seems fine and lean with muscle. He shouldn't be dehydrated but the diarrhea has me worried. He's had 2 water bowls for about a week so he shouldn't be saggy from being dehydrated but i believe it's because he's in last stages of shed.

P.S: I doubt it was an irritated/frightened response because he was by no means squirming and he was already in the midst of "going" inside his hide on my bed. Plus he did that on his first ever day with me (taking him out of the shipping box and putting him in his cage) and he was frantically squirming like a corn snake then while just now he was already starting to put out his urate and was placid in my hand as i moved him over to his towel substrate to dump his load.

P.P.S: Sorry i wasn't aware swearing was an issue on these forums!
