well i soaked him in a large foam box today. 20 parts water to 1 part gatorade. he drank for 15 min straight almost. i also let him sip up flukers emergency care. most went into water but he was drinking it up on his own.

in his vivi i put a metal bowl of roaches and one super worm to get his attention.





today he seemed extreamly weak and his eyes were closed almost the whole time of soaking he is in his vivi and went to his favorite spot. i also changed his water bowl to a more familiar one. as well as added a humidifier into his vivi.

hopefully these things will help him recover from his stressfull move into a larger vivi.



also he probably got dehydrated from not realizing where his water bowl was. i hope the next few days he improves. i am very worried for him.
