my male blood has only taken a crap 2 times in 2 months im dont think thats normal i tried the soaking in warm water and still nothing plus i can feel these rock hard lumps in his lower half right near his tail any tricks to get him to go? oh yeah and hes about to shed i herd some were that they go when they shed is that true or false?

Bloods don't go all that often. And when they go they go...
It is true about them going when they shed... It isn't a guarantee though, but it usually happens... If you are worried a LONG soak gets them everytime... I am talking HOURS in soak...
Yours sounds pretty normal... I wouldn't be worried after only a month, a couple months in more of a worry. I have noticed with a good size dish in the cage that they can crawl into and good overal humidity they seen to be more regular...
Hope this helps...

yeah ... thanks man i was getting worried...he has a lrg water bowl and loves to soak and his humidity is about 65-70% and a temp of 85degrees he eats like a champ and has you normal blood attitude... what about the rock hard lumps in his gut? should i worrie about that.

If they are down toward the vent... They are just large urates...
