Sick? Depressed?

[brittjoslyn211]

Hello everyone. For the past day and a half my Russian hasn't come out from his sleeping spot. He sleeps under a big hollow tree stump (not real, I bought it at petsmart). I have to take him out myself to eat. He's been eating very slowly. Normally he eats rather quickly. Anyone know what this might be? His appearance seems normal.

Check you temps and also check what you are checking them with. If your using those round disc things they sell at pet stores, they are very unreliable. Get a temp gun and a digital thermometer from places like Home Depot, around ten dollars and make sure he is warm enough and also not too warm. How often do you soak him? A nice warm soak for 20-30 minutes about 1-2 times a month for an adult is good for keeping him hydrated. Also, does he have access to water 24/7? What it the substrate and temps?
