I just crop mine to keep the high resolution

We actually do call him king Iroh! This is great, thank you. :)

Best of luck with your guy let us know what the vet says biggest things are to go from no RI or parasite load

You are seeing some warning signs here of problems (refusing food even treats, breathing concerns and as beman pointed out abnormal fecal movement These are all concerning I’d call the vet you have an appointment with and see if they can get your guy in sooner

Everything can be a little scary with raising a new kind of animal, but you got access to knowledgeable keepers here if it makes you feel any better, continue to use this resource, be open to feedback and you’ll be okay.

Cheap timer for lights - yes Healthy poop that doesn’t smell - also good (should still get a fecal ran before building a permanent cage, a lot of us had made the mistake of skipping this step, building a beautiful cage and contaminated our hard work with parasites) Hornworm note: they are...
