He doesn't sway all that much. The gaping seems to be mainly under the basking lamp although yesterday he was doing it else where. And tygger i have Both analog and digital thermoms in there and two analog hygrometers in there. The side of the cage where i have the digital thermom i have the sensor down near the bottom but ill move it up closer to the basking light to get a more accurate reading on the temp under it. I raised the temps in general yesterday, maybe thats why he seemed to be gaping more? the temp right now is 76 and he hasn't done the gaping thing yet this morn. The post i read about the URI said to maintain a constant temp and humidity threw out the night so i did, maybe he dos have a URI. If he gapes before its time for us to leave to the big city hes going with us to the vet. If he doesn't I'm not going to take him out of his home for 7 hours. Hes his normal active self as usual running around the cage and his color is great.



BTW Thank you everyone for the responses. Ill keep updating till I know for a fact he is fine and more so if theres any changes that would be for the worse.
