Do my boys poops look healthy?

[NorahJan]

These are a few days old, but I was wondering if these look healthy for the most part. I have been really nervous that he is dehydrated.. There is a little piece of shed in the mix as well so disregard that

 

[NorahJan]

Here are my most recent pictures of the boy to help decipher if they are healthy or not. His first birthday is April 6th!

He seems hydrated. The colors look great.. His urates’ colors look good.

The colors look alright they just look a little dry. His urates’ colors look good though. Are those poops over about a day old?

Yeah, I do a deep clean of all the poop on Sundays, so this was an accumulation from the week.

I do Sunday cleaning as well. Your boy is looking healthy and wonderful! What his name? Happy early birthday

His name is Pascal after my favorite childhood disney movie

I was thinking of naming my Cham that but when I saw him I named him Loki

Is there a way I can make sure he gets more water? I have a dripper running from 10am-12pm, then again before bed time. I also have a fogger that runs all night (11pm-4am) that he usually decides to sleep directly under.

Do you have a mister? Mister are a must. You can mist 30 min before lights come on and 30 min after lights go off. Also if he is 9+ months old you you can start to feed him hornworms every so often which are packed with water and are a great to get your Pascal hydrated.

I do have a mister, it sprays for 45 seconds before the lights go on and 45 after they go off. But it doesn't reach throughout the entire cage so I hand mist as well. I will definitely offer him some more hornworms! I was only doing them once a month as a baby, but will definitely see if he takes them. He's an insane eater so I'm sure it won't be a problem. Thank you!

No problem! I love to help! Feeding 1hornworm a month is actually a good amount to feed him. Unless he gets dehydrated. But I don’t think he will because you are taking excellent care of him. Keep us posted. Love to see pictures!

My veiled I keep hydrated with the below schedule. I never see her drink and her urates are nice and white.

7:45 - 3 min mist
8:00 - lights on
3:00 - dripper installed
7:45 pm - 3 min mist
8:00 pm - lights off
12:00 - 1 min mist
12:00-6:00 fog constantly

I would up the misting time to 2 minutes minimum. This will trigger his drinking urge as well as trigger him to clean his eyes.

Also, if he's about a year old, make sure you're cutting back on feeding - he looks a great weight right now but veilds are known to be little garbage disposals. As they get into adulthood (around one year) you'll want to cut down to 3-4 feeders, roughly 3 days a week, with a weekend day maybe an offering of a treat bug.

Lovely boy!!
