I don't know if he's stressed...as I never see him flick hairs...well he did flick hairs at me when I took the water dish out but I think it was only because he was right beside it. HE didn't flick them when I put the water dish back in the same spot. (I use a small ceramic dish, about 2" diameter since he's grown much larger than 2" in body length. I figure there is no chance of him drowning.

Its been about three months since the last molt...I think...and I have been feeding him a bit more often in the new enclosure and he eats (often jumping on the crickets as soon as it hits the ground). I will keep my eye on the bald spot and see if it gets darker...right now it looks a light tan..kind of leather like in color.
