I have kinda been dealing with the same issue-incompatabilty between the two indiduals might cause this and possibly the substrate may be to cool.I'm relatively inexperienced but understand how incorrect substrate temps can effect your monitors health especially of concern to those living in northern climates.So many factors that can be intertwined.How i see it and this is just what i have understtod from my own experience is if the substrate where they conserve moisture/ energy is too cool it slows their energy level-heat up the soil raise their metabolism so they need to feed more.I wouldn't normally post but sometimes it's good to show others they are having similar experiences Moe
