Cage Info:
Current Problem - i got rex the male jacksons from a pet store. He is very dark since i picked him up and not being very active in his cage. Every so often see him with 1 eye closed like he may be taking a nap. Accidently woke him up once last night. Drank some water and eat one cricket since then. Ive been trying to do everything the pet store told me to do to keep him healthy! Im pretty sure the pet store itself was a little warmer then he is now but they didnt have a constant temp/humidty gauge in his cage. His legs look a little skinny im not sure if he is dehydrated. Worried about him or that i may be doing something wrong. If i filled out the top or wasnt detailed enough please ask i want my little guy to feel better.
