i've noticed over the past week that louis is not eating nearly as much as he was. thus, he's lost a bit of weight (3 -4 grams over the past week). he also spends a LOT of time in his hide. but, i also work 9-10 hours per day and so don't see his daily activity. i just know in the mornings, he acts different than he used to. when i'd get up at 5 a.m., he'd be up waiting for breakfast. now he's in his hide.
i always put fresh food out for him at 5 a.m. and again at 5 p.m. he doesn't eat anything anymore at the 5 p.m. feeding. even if i get him outside in the sun for awhile after 5 p.m., he still won't eat when he comes inside. he just goes straight into that hide. he also doesn't eat as much of his morning feeding as he used to.
when he is out running around, he acts fine. the temps are fine in his enclosure. 100+ under the lamp and down to around 75 in the coolest corner. humidity is good. so, not sure what the deal is.
oh - i feed spring mix and rotate adding calcium/d3 (2-3 times a week), mazuri (2 times a week) and occasionally zoo med. he mainly eats the spring mix, and doesn't eat much of the mazuri or zoo med cause i see a lot of it left in the bowl when he's done.
