* Watering - I have a dripper running for about 11 hours a day and hand misting 2-3 times a day. I mist until all the plants are dripping wet. I havent seen my cham drink, he seems to be afraid of misting.

My 5-month-old veiled arrived at saturday evening. I've only been able to find one poop so far. It was this morning and I quess he had pooped last evenging, because it had already dried. The urate looked normal, pure white, but at the end there was little bit of orange chrystals. I he eats eagerly and seems healthy, but hates my misting routines and gapes mouth+puffs when I try to mist near him. I haven't seen him drink yet. Should I be worried?
