I thoroughly cleaned out his cage and rearranged everything. I have only had him for a month, he is about 3 & 1/2 inches from snout to vent. Apparently things are much more to his liking now. He's been knocking crix off left and right (much to my enjoyment) and is a happy green color. I am continually amazed as to how far that tongue can extend....doesn't seem natural or possible..Lol! He is alone in a spare bedroom and sees no reflections or other animals. Temps and humidity are fine. If this happens again I will definitely take him to the vet. Thanks for all your helpful information!!!
