I want to thank everyone for their input. I took him to a vet specializing in reptiles on April 7th, and he gave me antibiotics, some pain medication, as well as liquied food. I faithfully gave him his medicine and food daily, but he just kept wasting away. He passed on 22nd. I guess he was just too far gone to save. The vet weighed him, and he tipped the scales at 7 grams. If he had been taken to a reptile vet by his previous owners right after the inital burn, he might have lived. They also neglected to apply silvadene from the beginning. I tried my best, but he was just too far gone. I've found another healthy veiled for sale locally, and I might be picking him up today.
