His beak seems pretty clean. I soaked him for 20 min in warm water today and still no poop. During and after eating he sometimes makes an almost squawking noise too. It's kinda worrying me.
I haven't seen a poop from my red foot in two weeks. I'm hoping he's been pooping and I just haven't seen it, and that he ate it.
Is there a way to tell if that's the case? If he's constipated what should I do?
Ah. Won't put it back then.
So would it hurt him?
The pet store said it wasn't for eating but rather to make everything smell nicer to him. I don't know if that makes any sense at all haha.
The pet store I got my red foot from told us we should be sprinkling timothy hay throughout the enclosure and sold us a big bag I used to back when he was on repti-bark.
Today when i was spraying his shell, I saw the bag of hay and wondered if I should put it in his new enclosure.
What...
I've been wondering for a while how to get warm water that's not straight out of the tap.
For my RF's water dish I put water that had been allowed to sit for at least 24 hours. The problem is, by that time it's pretty cold. I want to be able to soak him in WARM water, but I can't let the...
Since the first post:
Monday, didn't eat much.
Tuesday (today), ate endive all up without a sound.
I can't really tell what's making the noise but I don't see signs of anything in the mouth, and again he ate normally today.
The noise was pretty loud, but since this morning he hasn't...
Thanks! I am planning on aranging things like your site shows as soon as I get some more money! I think he likes the new home it is just kind of odd he is going towards the cold end more that still needs a heat emitter.
Thanks everyone!
He seems ok but he didn't eat very much of his endive or turnip greens. He would bite off a bit then walk to the cool end which riht now is like 70 degrees. That is odd as I didn't think he would want to be there much until I got a heat emitter.
Anything to be worried about...
Also, I'm wondering what you guys think of this:

It's what I was using before I found turtletary and this site. You're supposed to feed it every day if you use it, and I had been from September until I came here a couple days ago.
Oh and thanks for the tip about how to soak it. It was echoed in an e-mail by turtletary.
I'm so dumb!!! I wanted to make sure it was really soaked, and was too stupid to realize if I went overboard it would be mushy. He seems normal now though. I called pro-plan and claimed to have a cat I...
Thanks!
Yeah, I've been only having it on for limited amounts of time because there's so much conflicting stuff on if RFs need UV light. Since it's snowy outside I can't take him outside (although he's by a window that shines in during the day) to get natural light, but I also don't want to fry...
Here it is:
I found the Christmas tree box at wal-mart for about 30 dollars.
Then, my friends and I took a jigsaw to cut off the end of that box and a hole in the original. Then we used a dremel with a sander attachment to smooth the edges, and then layered a ton of clear packing...
