Thanks for the replies. He is a WC recently purchased. The dealer had him eating rat pups. I have him in a 55 gal glass tank. Currently no hide box but branches to climb on. Water bowl, cypress bedding and above source heat at one end. Per your suggestions I will move him into a habitat that is enclosed on three sides with open front and give him several hiding places. He is about 7" long. The new habitat is 7' x 4' x 3'. He is very active and does not appear to be suffering with anything (mites, RI, etc.). Thanks for your help.
