His infection is fine. My issue is he is extremely lethargic and won't move an inch. All he can do is chew up food I stick in his mouth and take water from a syringe and poop.
I fear he is paralyzed from the fall but the vet didn't think so. It just dosent make sense that he has absolutely...
So Sherman has went downhill since I started the antibiotic. He is to the point now Where he won't crawl or climb on his own. After falling from his cage a second time I put him hospitalized in a special bin with his lights above providing him basking and uvb.
The vet took him off the...
His basking is at 93-95. Rest of cage is like 75-85. I bought a 70 watt bask spot bulb I'm going to use instead of infrared. I've tried taking him outside but and haven't noticed anything
But yes about to try and give him his medicine. He knows it too as he will hide when I open his cage...
Tried to edit post but phone won't let me sorry for bumping.
Also, would that be necessary if I can get a couple wax worms down him.. Besides the ones he manages to spit out of his mouth with his tongue, which still worries me that he is doing that.
This is Him standing on his fav. branch. Reptisun 5.0 bulb is about 5-6 inches form him. 100watt basking bulb. gets about 95 degrees on that perch.
Other picture is him being obsessed with the light. he has been doing this the last couple days too. (I feel like this is bright on his eyes but...

Sherman is 18 months old, ive had him for a month. He weighs 49 grams. (his growth was probably stunted from his previous owners bad husbandry, He's a trooper and I can't explain how much love I have...
Okay he's not being a good eater atm. Probably still stressed from the vet trip. Hes an emotional guy. I'll give him a day or two to start eating again

was thinking one of these. Is the dual fixture necessary?
I just upgraded my 18x18x36 cage for my veiled. I currently have a 24 inch zoo med fixture with 18 inch 5.0 reptisun bulb. And a 70 watt ge house bulb for basking (about 93-96 degrees).
Looking on the forums I see a lot of people have multiple lights set up for UVB.
Do I need another light...
Yes I checked on him this morning and it seems to have gone down a little bit. I'm goin to shoot about 2 ml of water in his mouth because I have not seen him drink. Being on antibiotics I think it's important he is hydrated
Hey guys thanks for the advice in my previous post about Sherman. He had an abcess on his nose. Link to it here

Thanks for reading and caring...
