I agree with Lesya that the ig should see a vet. I work with a wonderful herp/exotic vet and if someone told me his/her ig only had a BM once every couple of weeks, I'd be very worried about that ig. Try putting a huge pan of warm water in the cage at all times. My room is warm enough to keep the water above 75 degrees, you can use a water proof heating pad or under tank heater if needed. I use a large cat litter pan. The igs always go in there, even though they are not fond of the tub. But I would certainly take him to the vets immediately- it's not normal, especially since he is eating.
