That's wonderful news! If you can keep him eating, you're half way there! Another thing you can do is get him a UVA/B bulb. Get it as close to his basking spot as you can, without him being able to touch it. I found that the bulbs w/ both UVA and UVB make a big difference in the well being of my turtles, but they need to be very close to the basking spot.

Good luck and keep up posted! I would love to know how this all turns out!
