Baby Ball Hasn't Eaten Yet and is in Shed

[ECM]

Any pillowcase is snake-safe as far as I'm aware. Just make sure you tie the end off so he can't get out. And I think 30 minutes is about as long as you want to leave him in there. If he's started shedding when you check on him you might want to leave him a bit longer though. I'm not sure about the every day thing; soaking actually removes the oils they build up between the new skin and the old, so that one you might want to keep at a minimum.

Nice to hear the digital one is coming soon; that'll help you figure out what's up!

Okay thank you! You have been super helpful!

Good news is he took a f/t mouse last night! I was so happy I could cry! (This is his first meal since being with me)

So for now I'm leaving him alone and even covered up the front of his tank so he feels more secure.

My plan I think is to leave him alone until Saturday, and then give him another soak/ pillowcase method and while he's doing that change his substrate to something that will hold humidity better. I'm thinking eco earth or the coconut husk? Do you think until Saturday is long enough for him to digest or should I let him be longer?

That's great news!

Saturday's fine; so long as you give him 48 hours to adjust, he should be good. Personally I'm using a coconut husk/organic soil mix, and I can attest that it holds humidity amazingly. And I like how it looks. Here's the guide I used to decide which worked best for me (coco husk and coco chip are the same thing):

Awesome thank you so much again! I think I will use the coconut husk.
I think my little guy is finally headed in the right direction!
