| My male hoggie was a nightmare for the first few months, eventually I discovered increasing the temperature could work. What temp is he at, I found mid 30's worked great, I now keep him at about 33. Increasing ambient temp rather than surface temp may work as well. He is a fairly consistent feeder now, don't worry about the shedding, mines shed once in a year. |

| Phew, Hog's finally ate yesterday, so I really hope Storm does soon too! Still hadn't got around to scenting, just got the mouse as hot as possible without risk of cooking it lol. He was in the middle of his faun and I'd seen him moving about just before so knew he was 'active'. I put it on his hide but checked 10 mins later and he was still hiding under his leaves so... I took them out lol. 10 mins later he still hadn't moved so I pushed the mouse off the hide on top of him and left him again, went back a while later and it was gone!! (I'd just like to point out he is usually left totally in peace and not hassled at all, and he could easily have burrowed into his substrate when I took his leaves away, but I was a bit more insistent this time lol) |
