    He definitely isn't dehydrated, at least not any more. In the beginning, I wouldn't doubt that he was. I believe his urates are okay. Like I said, its hard to tell because I'm at school all day. When I got home, I checked the ones that looked... 'fresher'... and I didn't spot any orange or other...

    nope, not that I've seen... he's still really swollen. Eating and drinking but on a smaller scale. Misting his place so many times a day. Its hard to know what he's doing when I'm at school, but my parents check on him, give him water, and mist

    Thank you for not lecturing me and for trying so hard to help. For all of you others who may be reading this and thinking I am irresponsible, unprepared, uncommitted, and who knows what else... I AM ONLY 13! there's really not much I can do here...

    After another thread, someone else had messaged me telling me calcium + D3 twice a month was all. And the people i got him from who gave me the dusting told me to put it on the crickets twice a month. so i have been doing that forever.:confused:

    Thanks for the advice, but i dont really think he could eat them. He is a very small guy (only 7 or 8 inches including tail) and couldnt eat anything more than maybe a worm or large cricket. If he was bigger, I would totally try this though-its a good idea :). Thanks anyway!

    I have had him for about 18 months. He is around 2 years old. I really really want to take him to the vet (SO badly), but my parents wont take me. They think if the bill is going to be over $100 and we only paid $65 for him it isn't worth it. Honestly, i don't understand where their logic comes...

    I feel so bad, but I don't have the money for a vet visit. I have sent an email to a friend who is a herpetologist and one to my local vet, going hoping there might be something she could do. My mom just dropped a huge bill yesterday after a visit to the hospital for appendicitis. I am willing...

    (Unfortunately) I have an update. After a TON of research, I have concluded it may be renal failure. Symptoms of this include, anorexia, depression, loss of appetite, gular edema, poor tounge aim, and more, all of which can apply to Mylo. If you have experience or know ANYTHING AT ALL about...

    The neurological problem seems to explain everything. Any ideas on what would cause one and how to treat it? His neck seems to be getting more swollen by the hour. :(. It doesn't look good. What should I do to help him. Do you think it's life threatening? I got him 1 dozen crickets, but I only...

    I just found out that we get our water from a well on our own property, which is tested for all things like Guardia that could harm any humans that drink it. However, it does have high traces of sulphur which effects the taste tremendously.

    update Hey everyone, thank you for your responses. Again, very sorry about all the errors (spelling and grammar) in this, for I was using swype on my tablet. This morning I went to check on him and noticed that the area behind his cheek and behind his shoulder (neck area) is severely swollen...

    Ooooooohhhhhh... Yeah really sorry about that I was using swype on my tablet and I was trying to type really fast because I wanted help immediately. Today I will go back and edit this to fix those mistakes. But for now: His aim (with his tounge when eating) is always remarkably spot on, but...

    Hey guys, it been a while. So tonight my poor baby showed some serious signs of URI: excretion from the mouth and gaping. :eek: Here's some backrgound;: The water at my house is not very good. It's too high in sulfur and ask kinds of junk but not at a serious level. We still drink and so...
