I had him shipped to me and the fedex people left him on my door step in the cold from 11:40 till 3:30. Its been about 24 hours since he came to our door and he seems to be doing okay for the most part, but unless we're holding him or watching him, he's sitting at the BOTTOM of his cage, eyes closed. He also has a dislocated/broken right middle toe(in the front) and my mom(being a vet tech) has tried fixing it, but no luck.

I think it may be pneumonia or shock, but our vet is closed for the holidays and an emergency call out here would be hundreds of dollars.

Any advice? i have him in a 10 gal "ISO" tank with a container of water, a heat lamp, a basking platform, and a stick for climbing.(he likes the stick). I dont know what else I can do for him. The temp in my room is boosted to 80F compared to the normal 75 I keep it at. His tank is a few degrees warmer than the surrounding room. I'm really worried because he is a sweet lil dragon and I dont want to lose him!

any help at all will be greatly appreciated!
