PPS?

So yesterday morning I got The Big Guy. At the pet store he looked perky, even though he was in 100 degree heat, one bowl of water, a painted shell and a cricket. I brought him home, and he's barely moved since. Last night I put shrimp/honey, plus ALL sorts if fresh fruits, veggies n calcium in front of him. This morning, i cleaned out last nights food (untouched) and put in banana/honey, and other stuff. He turned around from last night and is just kinda leaning on glass. He is currently in the large, noisy kitchen. Should I put him in my bedroom? Temp/humidity is 78/80.

I would move him to a quiet place.

I think he's dead He hasn't moved an ANTENNAE since yesterday afternoon. If he has PPS, or is going to surface molt, would he be so darn STILL?!? I mean, even when I had to pick up the food bowl right next to him, nothing, not a twinge I feel terrible. I thought I was bringing him home to a nice place. The Big Guy has passed.... I picked him up and he fell out of his shell. And no, it wasn't his exo. Also, The Big Guy turned out to be a Big Girl, as she had gonopores. May she rest in peace.

I'm sorry. At least she had a nice home for her passing. There is often nothing you can do to help them survive. It is so sad.

Sometimes they can't recover from bad pet store conditions. It's not your fault so don't worry.
