Well the person that I rescued it from had it in a 10 gallon with screen top and a heat rock looking like skin and bones. 2 weeks later it's in a sealed cage with organic soil/ filtered play sand mixture with 130 degree basking, 80 cool side 65-70ish humidity. I did get it to eat a pinky today but I had to stick it in it's mouth until the feeding response kicked in. I was worried about something spreading to my other collection, that's another reason I wanted to treat the lizard with panacur. I realize that high basking temps usually kill off some of the parasites in the wild but the sav doesn't seem to want to get near the 130 degree spot. there is also some 110 and 100 degree ledges below the 130 degree spot.
