Hi everyone! I just got my 3.5" Smithi last night and I'm a little bit worried. It wont walk, it stays in the center with one of his feet dipped in its water bowl. Won't eat probably because it just got rehoused. Seller told me it's in premolt but it's abdomen isnt shiny and there's a bald spot. Please help :(

The bald spot is from kicking urticating hairs. It's probably stressed. Just leave it alone and give it some time to settle in.
