Make veiled about 2 months old in my care for about 1 month

I only handle when I have to clean his cage

I feed him 2 sets of 3 crickets a day 1 in the morning and 1 at night I gut load with Fluckers orange cubes and flunkers cricket food

I use repti calcium and herptivivite multi vitamin and I try to dust twice a month

I mist twice a day and have a dripper

he normally has brown poop with white parts but I haven’t noticed him poop recently because he is not eating and not moving much I’m not sure if he has been ever tested

when I got him he was shedding but he hasn’t shed yet which I think is odd and he has one eye closed most of the time and he will rub his eyes on things and theypuff out when he dose so

cage is glass with a screen roof it’s 19 x 16 x 22

mom not sure what brand but I have a 100 watt basking bulb and a tube uvb bulb

mom not sure temp in basking spot but it ranges from 80 at the top and 60 at the bottom I have a humidity thermostat mix to measure temps

Like I said I must and have a dripper for humidity

I have no live plants but I am getting a golden Pothos for him

he is on top of my desk not a lot of traffic except for me going in and out of my room I would say he is about 3 feet from the floor

I am in Vermont in the northern part of New England just a few miles from the Canadian border
