I posted before that my 3 month old(today, in fact) male blizzard was being mean and acting strange. 5 days ago(Friday) I noticed that he was getting ready to shed. I checked on him a few times every day and got really worried. His shed was ready to come off Sunday, it was lose not attached anywhere, hanging over his eyes. He is always in the moist hide so it wasn't a lack of humidity. He is lethargic, he made no attempt to remove any of his shed. I gave him a warm bath, but still nothing. and even more frightening he didn't attempt to move/hiss/bite at all when I picked him up to put him in the bath. I removed his shed and still no real attempt to stop me. I am really worried about him. He doesn't move around, he will not hunt down his food, he waits until a cricket finds him and he strikes once, not getting up onto his legs at all. He just lays there all the time. I don't know what to do. He does eat, he hasn't lost any weight. My insects are gutloaded and Ca coated. On the rare occassion that he walks. he does walk normally, no bent/bowed/odd looking legs. One more thing, he shakes/trembles it's really strange none of my others have done that. any advice? or ideas as to what may be wrong?!? Thank you!
