Hello all, I was at the Grand Rapids rep expo today and purchased a young acanthosaura. Great sellers, major kudos to them, very informative. I have been researching them for about a month and finally purcased one. His full enclosure will be ready for him in a few days 4'x3'x20". But right now he's in a ten gallon. He is very calm (sleeping right now actually, he seemed pretty tired). Should I try force feeding/hydrating him tonight or should I just see if he will eat and drink tomorrow? Thanks for all your help, I can't wait until he is situated and comfortable. This is my first lizard so any advice is helpful. He has been dewormed (the seller told me last week, and that I should do it again soon, good advice) for your info.
