i didnt really like them. and they were expensive. she told me that the uvb tube light wasnt good and to get a regular bulb that has uvb. i didnt like that advice either. can you tell me what and where i can get good dust.
the vet said for natural calcium that all i need are collar greens in the cricket food and they will have enough so that i dont have to dust. hes on some kind of yummy(sike) liquid diet until he can eat on his own again.
OK diezel is better than i thought but is still bad. He has some calcium problems and a few other small stuff. heres my bill. i told you it would be alot.

theres the video.
thanks for helping guys. i just want diezel to be happy.
he can see from it i know he can because he sees me approaching with it. he squints it from time to time but no long periods of closure. the whole tounge thing has me worried and confused. my vet wants $300 for visit blood and stool. i need a new vet in NJ
he goes to clean his eye but then it goes way to far and comes out and he puts it back in with his hand. and he will eat crickets if i place them in his mouth but his tougne hasnt come out in a week or 2 i keep trying but he wont shoot. i will post the video when i get home of his eye im at work...
there is no glass or plastic or anything between him and the uv bulb only screen and he sits about 8 inches away from it all day long. and yes its cal. powder
i think i know why he is getting so close to the food and not doing anything. he seems to get close and jerk to try and shoot his tongue but cant. he will eat if the cricket is placed on his mouth. ugh how do i fix this. because my vet charges $100 to see him and $100 a piece for stool and...
