My point was, that when animals are purchased through a pet store...all they're going to do is turn around and replace it with whatever they can, in the same horrific husbandry conditions.

    I'm pretty sure that most of the time pet stores don't stock sick animals on purpose. I feel, however, that store employees could be trained a LOT better than they are. Most of the advice that is given out is to benefit the profit of the business.

    OK, thanks for sorting that out for me. I didn't mean to derail, but I also don't want the OP to feel like they did a bad thing or feel worse for trying to help. It's in some peoples nature. I've almost become a victim of it myself.

    I am glad OP is trying to help and give this animal a good chance at a healthy future and I think he found the right place to get help. Keep us updated OP, and follow JordanAng420 advice. :gj:

    okay so what i did yesterday was put him in a little plastic container with moist paper towels on the bottom and put it in his cage...
    i left the lid off of the container so he could get out and do what he gotta do...
    i woke up this morning and he was completely fine.. like his eyes were wide open and he was completely shed.... i fed him some calcium dusted gutloaded crickets this morning he ate like 5-6 small crickets... im proud of this little guy lol!

    so yea i think he should be fine now :D

    thanks all who helped!
