make sure you dont feed it

Dont feed it until it has hardened up..and its fangs are dark again.
I think it takes a few days when they are very small..about a week when they are bigger.
And congrats on a successful molt.

Way to go Hampton,
How big is it now? Like Kim said, dont feed it to soon.
Mist it some water drops on the wall of the cage.
Good luck,

Ernie
