the basking has to be 105-115 for him to properly digest his food, he needs the ambient temps up on the cool side also, 80-85
How long has it been since he pooped or ate? soaks will help, nice long warm soaks, not hot, just luke warm, rub the tummy gently towards the vent. mineral oil can also help to get things moving, just 2-3 drops from a dropper or syringe without a needle, and keep him well hydrated.

>>and the cooler temp is 78

>>*Sighs* what do I do about impact? vet? .... how much does the vet usually cost... I'm living on my own and going to college so you can imagine that I don't have much cash to spare. ----- reiko
