Kaesar is 3 months old and housed in a 40 gallon breeder tank for the meantime. I use tile as the substrate in his cage. He has a ReptiSun 10.0 tube and two basking lights; one 60 watt and one 75 watt. His basking spot hits around 105-115, hot side 90-95, cool side 75-80.
I've had him for a week today. When I first got him he had a very large appetite eating about 30-50 crickets a day but the past two days he hasn't had much of an appetite at all. Yesterday he didn't eat anything at all and today he's eaten 3 good sized crickets and 3 phoenix worms. He's passing poo about twice a day but the past two days I think it's just the urates... it's the white stuff with some water. Now I noticed his color is dull so I thought maybe he was going through shed? Does shedding cause a drop in appetite? I've given him a few soaks and sometimes he laps up some water but his appetite has me worried.
