So I have posted a thread already a few days ago in regards to not knowing if my Veiled was dehydrated or getting enough water. But I know for sure now he is dehydrated. I've only had him 2 weeks and 3 days. I've seen him drink 3-4 droplets from his dripper two separate times, and once from the water droplets from leaves. But that is all over the 2 weeks I've had him. I'm home all day and get to watch him closely. So I'm almost 99% sure this is all he has drank. His urates were white until about 3 days ago. Now they are orangish. I have a hand mister and when I water him I see him doing the motion of drinking with his mouth, like as if he wants to drink. But then he just doesn't drink. I tried to take him out once to do the shower method but was not a success. He hissed many times as soon as I tried to
Put him in the shower. I don't know what to do, because I cannot get him out of his cage. I'm also waiting on a hand dripper( basically a syringe) to arrive to see if he will drink
From that. Any advice ? I don't want to force him out and traumatized him
