: Merlin hasn't gone poop since I moved him out of his small aquariam to his HUGE CAGE that I just finished (6' tall, 5' wide, 4' deep). I figure it is because his cage wasn't warm enough. I have a spot light mounted a foot above a shelf for him to bask in with a heating pad under the indoor/outdoor carpeting in that corner (set on low). I used a thermometer and measured the heat there to be 97 degrees. The rest of the cage is the temperature of my house...70 ish. What is wrong?

: PS. Could it be from not having a "Plant" light on him...the special reptile lights that give of D3?

: Its been about 5 days now since he's gone and when he was in his little tank he would go every day or so. He is about 3.5 feet long from snout to the end of his tail so he's no baby.
