hey i recently saved this little frilly from a petshop, picked him up for like 50.00 but hes not eating. Ive tried force feeding, making sure i have both heat lamps and uvb bulbs on him which he stays away from, I tried small crickets,wax worms, lettuce mixed veggies, mealworms and covered his tank for privacy. any ideas? I did take him to the vet yesterday and he said theirs no illnesses that he can see, but he was a little thin he also put him on several worming meds just in case as there were no stool samples available. any advice you can give me would be helpful. he doesnt freak much when you pick him up, but will try to escape if given a chance. I have him in a 29 gallon container which is a lot larger than what the pet shop had him in. is this big enough as hes not that big. they also said they had him for a year but had him marked as a basklis lizard lol. so they obviously didnt do their homework
