My big guy is about a foot long age about 9-12 months and is usually very active. He was pretty active in spurts through out the day until this evening.He ate lettuce but no crickets. He is just laying around. He looks slightly bloated and just won't move around just sleeps. His one eye won't open often when he does open them. He took a bath earlier and drank some water but otherwise just lays his head down and stays put. I am so worried I'm afraid to lose him. He is shedding does that make them sleepy? CAn anyone tell me what to do?
If you could go over your tank setup with us that would help.
What type & brand of UVB light are you using, a flourescent tube bulb or a compact or coil light?
What type of basking light do you use, a bright white light or a colored light?
What are the temps in the tank, & what type of thermometer are you using? A stick on type, a digital probe or a temp gun?
Do you use calcium supplementation on a regular basis, 3 times per week?
What type of substrate do you use, sand, tiles, paper towels?
Could you post a picture of him for us?
When was the last time he went to the bathroom?
Shedding will affect their appetites, yes.
