Also do i need to put anything special inside the tank? Like any other foods to help him or any kind of water?

They do shed a layer over their eyes.

It never hurts to give them raw organic honey, protein and calcium. Fats are important during molting too- maybe some organic coconut oil.

You can always give little bottle cap fills of water.

Usually hands off will be better.

Good luck!

Just checked on him today. He is dead. The legs were not hollow and the exo was actually him because the abdomen was attached and he smelled horrible. Thank you guys for your help and support.

So sorry for your loss, Ellybelly! Good luck with your other hermies, though.
