[QUOTE="Synapze, post: 349368, member: 10818"] This species can have health issues if the enclosure isn't well ventilated. General recommended humidity range is around 40-60, but 70 would be fine if well ventilated. How large is the enclosure and the opening ventilation hole at the top? You may want to consider adding an additional vent like the one shown. They're dirt cheap on eBay and easy to install... unless the enclosure is glass. The skittish behavior and refusal to eat could be a sign that it is about to molt. If that's the case you should remove the feeders because they can interrupt the molting process. [/QUOTE]
