after bringing him home he was only handled a couple of times before we tried feeding him.

we will be feeding him every 7 days...in the beginning here we have only tried to get him on the same schedule as our other BP, which is why he went 10 days the first attempt to feed. After the first attempt we only waited another 7 days. Of course I know he's young and doesn't need to go more than every 7 days before he eats again...hence my concern.

What type of thermometer hygrometer do you use (dial, stick, digital)

How many and what kind of hides do you provide? Are they tight (all side touching your BP’s body and identical?)
ExoTerra 18"cube, substrate provided by NTRB (forgot what it's called), styrofoam rock wall along back wall, I've hung fake greenery moss from cork board on the right and left sides so it feels more enclosed, 2 identical hides (they don't look the same from the outside, but the insides are identical ( I used wire mesh and sheets of dried moss to make them the same shape etc. on the inside), UTH, corner water dish, housed individually, not yet 100% about temps & humidity, will soon be getting an accurite as I'm very aware for a need for this type of monitoring) for now i'm misting a couple times a day, but I do know he uses his warm and cool hides equally. Hides are pretty snug, but he does have growing room in them. I think it helps having the dried moss glued to the entire dome shaped ceiling to make him feel more secure.
