Your little one can go into its own enclosure right now. He will not eat until he sheds, which can take anywhere form 5-7 days roughly. Be sure to provide the same for him as you would the adults:heat, humid hide, shallow water dish and regular hide. Once he begind eating you will need to feed him very small crix every day if he's hungry or every other day if he has a small appetite.

Congrats on the little guy:D
