so you think that i would be better off giving him just regular meat in lieu of something like cat food? i hate to sound squeamish, but i don't think i could give him pinkies unless there were no other alternatives.



i let him roam around free quite a bit, but at night and in the mornings he is always in his enclosure. when he's out, he goes to the same place after he's crawled around a bit. it's in the sun (via the window), and i keep a heat lamp there as well.



perhaps i should try keeping him contained more often, but since he expects to be let out so often, he ends up spending his day trying to climb out!



THANK you for your response -- as i previously mentioned, i'll be in touch with my vet...
