Posted - 04/07/2012 : 18:15:17 OK, so Monty's still not feeding, I've tried assisted, but he just spits it out!
Solution (hopefully): Today I've bought a complete new set-up. 3ft viv (he was in a 31/2) and ceramic heating (as opposed to heat mat and basking lamp).
If this doesn't work I'm going to give myself a heart attack with worry, he's only eaten twice since November :-(

In which case ignore me. But Royals don't like light. They hide from it if anything. So the basking light will be upsetting him. You say your going to buy him a ceramic bulb and I'd say that was a good idea. That's what I used with my Tig and what most people use too. But make sure you get a bulb guard for it as well! And a stat to keep the heat right.
