    Sometimes he does that but it’s just after he takes a drink when I drop it on his face. He never sits with his nose up though. He’s willing to eat the carnivore care that I’m giving him but he doesn’t eat anything else because he just keeps his eyes closed all day. Doesn’t seem like he minds...

    Thank you for the response. I just woke him this morning and he opened his eyes to look at me for one second and then shut them again and it looked painful. they look dry and he has to do the weird eye thing a couple times before he got them open. He also wont drink on his own either so pretty...

    I dropped the light down this morning when His lights went on. the uvb was only elevated off the screen about 1 month or so ago when this all started as someone told me to do so on Reddit. A fecal is the only thing that I haven’t had done because he has really stopped defecating. He has only...

    yes I did replace the bulb. I put the uvb light back on the cage top. his branch that he would normally bask under for uvb is 6-7 inches from the top of the cage. If you look up at the pictures of him that I posted he is still in that same spot of his cage but I lowered the uvb light to be on...

    I am going to call them and try and get the results as a pdf and more info so I can post it here. The results were studied by a lab at Oregon State University and she mainly told me he was calcium deficiant with a ratio of calcium to phosphorus of 1.5 to 1

    I was thinking the same thing about the light and just bought him a new bulb 2 days ago. a solarmeter is the only thing I don't have should I get one? I know they are expensive but I will do anything for my little guy. The calcium LoD is pretty new but the mineral calcium I have is about 8...

    yes and I have a brief overview at the top of this post with pictures again. The only thing I was told when it was reviewed was to make my UVB light elevated off the top of the cage.

    his urates were very white but sometimes would have slight orange at the end but nothing too unusual as he would drink a lot every day. before he was sick I use mineral outdoor calcium with every feeding. and repashy calcium plus every 2 weeks.

    The only visible sign of sickness he is showing is his eyes closed. But he does not move around or do anything on his own. he is holding weight well and not dehydrated as I am giving him water and just started with this veterinary food formula.

    And the issue back in June only lasted a few days and turns out he was just on a hunger strike. this is something new. He was completely normal for the past 5 months or so and was eating well.

    Since he hasnt been eating on his own he has only been getting the calcium gluconate for about 9 days now and I was able to give him calcium plus lod about 2 weeks ago when he ate the last bug he's had on his own but it was barely any. His UVB light is a T5 HO 5.0 REPTISUN BULB IN a ZOO MED...
