OK this is how it is, he has been fine eating drinkin and pooing well, and shedding, in fact he has just come thru a shed, i took him out this evening to give his house a clean up and wipe round, and he was pretty active. Even did a poo while he was out.

When i put him back he didnt move, wasnt interested in any food, and even tolerated me handling him, were as normally he would run all over the viv, now he is just laying under one of the logs with his chin to the floor....he also
did a strange looking poo to when he went back in, look like a topedo, about the size of a large cricket, but it look like wrapped up tissue paper, not sure if thats coz he has shed recently.

I cant do much more this evening as it is late, but first thing i will be contacting
the herp vet my sister uses, any ideas guys.
thanks in advance for any advice.
cheers
Janine
