Not eating due to shed??

[the wee dude]

Hey, i posted yesterday about my cham only part shedding, and the replies i got eased my mind. But now he's refusing to eat, hiding whenever i walk past his cage, and really dark brown. Could this just be because it's his first part shed, and he's just feeling uncomfortable and kinda vulnerable? He was normal up till yesterday, nothing has changed in his cage, food, lighting, humidity etc. Am i just worrying for nothing?

They can get a bit grumpy at shed time. That skin is getting really tight. Mist more regularly and it should be fine. Just give it time.

Well his eating is back, he ate 12 locusts yesterday and 9 so far today, so i'm happier. He's still a grumpy wee dude though, but it's justified lol
