Weight Gains and Humidity Woes

I found Mr. Wibbles in a bit of a fog this morning, quite literally. His water dish was empty, the sides of his tub were wet so that I couldn’t see inside, and his paper towel substrate was fairly moist. Clearly his humidity is too high. Tonight I must solder more holes into his tub to allow some additional moisture to escape.

While I was cleaning and sterilizing his habitat this morning, I went ahead and weighed him. He came in at 106 grams, a 51% increase in the 25 days we’ve had him. He hasn’t defecated, however, so we should expect some decrease when he does. Still, this is encouraging news for Mr. Wibbles, who is growing by leaps and bounds.

Here is his weight chart:
