I tried blending water and some romaine and he would eat a lil bit and would go back to close his both eyes

The only problem, is that he’s losing a gram weight since he’s not eating he just ignores the food even if I put him there or crush the food up or try something else he ignores it goes into corner and closes his eyes, at first when I got him he was 145 grams and always eating and I’ve been...

Hmmm that’s a hard one :D, since you have the water and bunch of mulch. What type of mulch do you use? And is it mixed?

Hmmm have you tried putting some Moss In the outdoor enclosure? And sprinkled it around I know it isn’t much but it could hold and retain a little more humidity
