The fact you have him sleeping in a box that is only a fraction bigger than him is part of your problem. That is the size box a guy Trent worked with had Wakanda living in a year and a half ago when he wasn’t using her for his own amusement, she was somewhere around 3’6 at the most when we took her in. Since being in her 6x6x2 enclosure since we took her in she has grown 6 inches and we are already looking at trying to go to a 8x6x2 for her. I definitely recommend that the box be ditched and a larger enclosure be made.

I agree on the cage...go bigger............He needs it...
I have a couple of question for you.
What are you feeding him (his diet)?
Are you using a uvb light for him?VERY important to have a UVB light..
