Ziggy is 8 months old and 19". I have triple checked everything... I replaced his UVB early just to be safe. My set up is tiles, basking at 113* cool at 73*(double decker viv), reptisun 10.0 tube. Offered Collards +turnip/mustard daily and mixed veges (from list), offered dubias and supers daily, ate 4 1" hornworms 2 weeks ago. Last fecal was July, 09.
Zig is still not eating. He ate those hornworms 2 weeks ago tomorrow and nothing since. He drinks daily and I sneak in some liquid calcium w/D3 every few days. He poops only tiny urates about every 2 days. He is hardly eating greens either. I got him to eat some mango on Thurs, but only a tiny bit. He was 400g (dec) and is now 392g. I am assuming this is brumation of sorts, although he is still pretty active, he is sleepier than normal. He is basking and hanging under his UVB light still and wants out daily.
BTW what do you do with the hornworms that are full grown?
Here is a pic from today.
