the dirt in his cage was so wet that had a pool of water at the bottom. i guess he sleep walked and drowned himself. im so sad he didnt even make it to his trip to the vet on friday. i guess that it was his time. :(:(:(:(:(
but there are a few other problems. first, this vet is about an hour and a half away, and he has been extra cold lately, so how do i keep him warm through the transportation? second, how much is this gonna cost????
iv also tried making him choke it down with a syringe and i even put calcium in the water, nothing. im starting to grind crickets into past so i can get food in him.
my mother said she would take him to a vet if he got any worse, and he got worse today, much worse, he was so cold and hes the exact color my other cham was when he died. this morning he actually slept in a ball in my hands when i held him up to the heat lamp. im so scared. what do i do!
