Mine is from the same parents as yours. My girl is right at 24-25 inches.. she still eats every day and is about to shed once again.... are you misting the burrow also? i mist down the tank everyday when i have my gu out in the feeding bin. Her burrow is right under her basking rock. i just lift it up and spray it down too.

Yes he is. He is only awake in the morning. And aets a little less. If I were you I would start downing the hours for daytime. He is still growing and is currently 21 inches. I think he will go into hibernation soon. As for the shed problem Im not sure. Is he getting enough cod liver?
