I have a 4 year old male Tiger that is refusing food.
I have had him for about 2 months or so now.
He's on coco fibre, temps are 60-65 and the humidity is at 70%
He was eating normally up until about week ago now he is refusing crickets, wax worms, nightcrawlers and a pinky.
Daytime he's in his hide or burrowed and early morning he is sometimes on top of his hide or in his water bowl.
I was told that there was an appetite stimulant that I could give him but was hoping for any other helpful advice here.
Thank you all for your time.
 
I personally don't recommend coconut fibre and I've never kept them on this. Regarding the humidity, it sounds pretty wet - do you have good ventilation for him?
 
What kind of lid is on the tank? Has his appearance changed at all? Is his current temperature warmer or colder than it was over the past 2 months? Does he look fat or thin? Was he previously eating pinkies?
