Help, sliding off my arm

[Brokaylacham]

Alright so i was taking out my guy to go outside but his clampers felt weak, im not sure what this is but im really worried. I read that it could be that he was tired so i turned off the lights faster and then he was a bit strong but i didn't do it today and thats when he slid of my arm when i put it upright. Leon is a five month Panther Ambilobe.

It could be a vitamin deficiency, it could be an illness, quite a few issues could cause these symptoms. Whatever it is, when they get to this point you need to get him help. Start by copying, filling out, and posting the how to ask for help sticky in the health forum. Some more experienced members may have to tips or suggestions for you. However, I strongly urge you to get him.to a qualified vet ASAP. Good luck.

I have to ask what is your lighting schedule? 12 hours on and then total dark for 12?

I turn on his lights at 7 ish am and then turn them off at 7 ish but my room lights stay on, im changing that as that seems to make him tired and weak. ALSO i just took him to the vet and he is very healthy, i am going to be changing his diet though and getting him some new lights but other than that i think im doing a pretty good job, thank you to the person that told me to take him ASAP because i think that's what got my dad to take him.

Oh also his grip seems much better?? I really think it was that he couldnt go to sleep.
