Those links were what helped me find this vet I'm going to earlier, glad they are there. I was hoping there would be something within a few hours of me from the herpvetconnection site, but there's not. I did find mine from one of the other links though.
Thanks for the response. I don't think I ever said that we didn't have UVB lighting, I wasn't sure initially but then found out that we do in fact have UVB lighting. If I made it sound like we don't have UVB, my mistake.
I don't want people thinking I'm someone who just decided on a whim...
No, there's not any vets in our area, I'm driving pretty far for this one on Friday (about an hour, not terrible). We live in the boondocks in NC, the next one would be almost 3 hours and my car will not make that trip without breaking down.

You've got to be right about the MBD being there and the fall being the reason for the legs, because his legs were fine days ago.

Added pictures of him at the top of the first post. I did the shower thing today for about 20 minutes on my lunch break. He breaks my heart when he tries to move, he just looks like he's hurting. We installed a dripper, which is probably too late. The vet moved my appt. up to Friday, they said...
I'll do the shower today, I'm just so worried about handling him if his bones are fractured/broken, I'm scared I'm causing him pain. But if you guys think I should go ahead, I will.
I didn't realize the fogger and the red/night lamp weren't good ideas! It does not get below 50 in there. We...
Thanks for the quick responses! After reading much on MBD and your responses, I've learned that my husband has been doing a lot of things wrong. Our watering has been extremely inadequate, and our gut loading has been as well. We have been using all potatoes, and dusting the crickets when we...
