I'm not sure if my baby flapneck is ok. He was with my sister the past weekend as I was away. He was a little stresses when I collected him yesterday afternoon, but did eat a couple of crics and looked ok. Today I i saw that he is not interested in his food and that he is slighly dehydrated. I misted him often, which seems to stress him out futher, but I noticed that there are white thingies on his nose. I read on a past post that they expel salt through their nose. Is that normal? Is there anything that I must do differently? He might also just be due for a shed as he is looking kinda dull at the moment. I'm worried about him.
He is in a mesh cage, the temp is around 30 to 35 degrees by the basking light side and around 25 degrees on the other side. I don't have something to measure humidity, there is a live hibiscus and plenty fake vines and jungle sticks for him to walk on,. I have a 10.0 UV lamp that is less than 2 months old and he is on a 12 hour light schedule. Ì mist about 3 times a day as I am working full time, but there is a dripper that drips on a leave on the hibiscus. I don't pick him up daily, but hand feed him about 3 crics in tne morning and I leave about 7 or 8 in a feeding bowl for him to eat.
I hope this is enough back ground info
 
It sounds like he is just a little stressed from the weekend move and then return home. Give him a couple more days and I bet he will be back to normal.

The white on the nose is normal, nothing to worry about there either.
 
What supplements are you using specifically and how often for each?
What specifically do you feed/gutload your insects with?
