Well, should I start to worry? I have tried red wigglers, salad,
fruit, reptomin and small mealworms. I am soaking my new baby every morning. Set up is as follows
enclosure is 32 by 32 inches.
cypress much as substrate and a hide with moss.
50 watt bulb over one area with Reptisun 5.0 over enclosure.
temps 85-90 under basking light
mulch is misted 2 X daily.

It hides in the cooler area of the enclosure. It is bright eyed and does not appear to have an illness. Please let me know if I should try something different. I have had him since Saturday.


Thanks, Linda
