If you read the whole thing, you would have seen that I took him to a specialist, and they could not find what was wrong with him. I have learned a great deal from all the people here (and am very grateful), as far as what it could have been, unfortunately I found this site too late, and I...
I didn't notice any broken bones, and his legs never bowed. As far as his lips go, they only did not touch where the crickets bit him, and it got infected, even after it healed, it still was scared. He could have been constipated, the first time he was sick my vet was having me give him mineral...
So what are the signs of bone issues and kidney issues? I mean it might very well been what was making him sick? am not sure. But... I just want to know if I can if that is what it is.

Thanks!!!!
Yes, just crickets. What else should I feed him? I have given him mealworms, he liked those, but my husband says they do not have enough protein for him. And I cannot find silkworms or anything like that around here.
The sperm plugs my vet told me to pull out. they get hard and stuck in...
Mine used to look like that when he was relaxed, now he looks like that when he is sick. Yours doesn't look sick, so maybe relaxed. He would turn that color, when he was sleeping and such. Mine turned a dark almost black so dark color when pissed.
