Baby Bitis Gabonica Rhinoceros
I am a beginner on Bitis and i really need help
with :
A baby gaboon viper is really stressed and the
ecdysis is very late,the humidity is good and i am
keeping the skin hydrataed,however,i can not see
him drinking water not even in the mister,
i have a few questions and really look for help:
--The humidity is ok (72%)now but to regulate it
automatically(day/night) is safe to use foggers( i
have concerns of respiratory diseases) because
of the fogger.
Once he gave the first signs of ecdysis i stopped
feeding and it was like 15-days ago,the skin do
not look stucked but i really feel him very
stressed,
--Before starting the ecdysis he was eating well
and looking hydrated(but i never saw him
drinking)
-I tried baths in warm water but he did not shed
and became more stressed.I am trying to keep
the skin hydrated to avoid getting
stucked,misting is also stressing.
i know that this level of stress can lead to a
number of diseases...
can any of you share some knowledge with a
beginner? I will be very gratefull
