I've had Yoda for 7 months, so he's around 9-10 months old. About two months ago he went through coccidia and pinworm treatment and was moved to his adult enclosure.
Thanks to all the great advice from forum members, Yoda is looking much better and healthier than he did post parasite treatment. Getting a dehumidifier is helping with his sheds, fogging and periodic longer misting sessions have helped with hydration, and getting a solarmeter confirmed a suspicion that I had that a "new" UVB light I got from Amazon was no good.
I've also managed to build trust with him so that he'll now eat from my hand and climb on me for free range time. He still gets scared sometimes or puffs toward the end of free range time so I'm trying to go at his pace. I'm hoping we have a good enough rapport to have outdoor free range time one day.
