I think the point is that if this animal was healthy (it does not sound healthy) it would move to a hotter spot if needed.



It sounds like something is wrong with this animal. It likely has nothing to do with what your doing (though nobody can be sure without being there), but rather it has something to do with what has happened to it on the trip from point A (the wild) to point B (your house). It was captured, shipped with other animals of various degrees of health (some dead), and kept in unknown conditions until it was sold to you and ended up in your house.



I would call whoever sold it to you and see if they will refund your $ or send you another animal if this one doesn't make it.



If you want to fork out more $, then you might consider a vet.



Other than that, I don't know if there is much than can be done besides waiting to see what happens.
