hi @Lyn W thanks for your concern. the blue plastic container is only used during the night time. for day time he gets plenty of sunlight and there's one time i think he's over heated because even under the shades the temperature rises as high as 45c. without shades, the temperature can goes as high as 50c plus. i think that's how he gets his bubbly nose. heat stroke perhaps? now, during the day time, he's housed under the roof behind my house, it's less heat. around 31c to 35c. he will gets his sunlight around 2 or 3 pm onward until 5 pm. he still walks around if i wakes him up. also, he seems to starts eating the grass i grow for him.
the only problems that's bothering me is
1) his appetite seems up and down,
2) not sure how to deworm him,
3) and the worst of all, his bubbly nose.
as for the shredded paper, i guess he never eats it. i did wonder about that as well previously. so i did check for any bite marks on the papers and there's none. well, of course that method wasn't 100% sure. other than that, whenever i put him back to this plastic container, immediately he finds a nice spot and starts to sleep until the next morning. still the same spot. around 7pm to 5am. other than that, he's a very choosy eater or should i say, low appetite? i tried feeding him hibiscus leaves and flowers, he won't eat it. feed him opuntia pad, a few bites. lettuce, barely eats it. like i said, his appetite is a roller coaster ride. can't really predicts it. so based on these 3 observations, i guess he didn't ate any shredded paper.
please don't get mad at me for making such stupid assumptions. hehehe...
