He is 4 mo. old, he is in a 50 gallon herp tank with a screened lid, a florecent UVA/UVB herp strip, a 150 watt full spectrum spot and a black light 75watt spot for added heat at night.
Ambient temeratures are 90 at the hot side and 75 at the cool side. Night temeratures are around 65-70 on the cool side at night, probably around 80 on the warm end, I have an undertank 10.5 x 11 " stick on heater by zoo med on the warm end.
I am offering collard, mustard, radis tops, shredded carrot, yellow squash, red pepper, bok-choy, you name it. I did take him to the vet and he gave him an injection of NORMOSOL R which is a cocktail of electolytes, steroids,etc. He also dewormed him. He had hook worms but he said they were not bad enough to cause his problems, he felt he just about froze to death in shipment and is just too little to pull out of it. Lets hope, I have done everything I know, Oh I am also soaking him 2x day in half H2O and half Pedialyte VERY warm.
