Forget about that.. I was referring to the pad you have underneath and without a thermostat can get really hot.. Can you move the animal to a warmer area of the house? Maybe where the ambient temperatures are higher? This animal has been eating regularly right? I think he's just confused.. He can't regulate his temperatures.. He is too hot on side and too cold on the other..

At this point there is a lot that needs to change.. You need to get his temperatures right and make sure he is hydrated.. Im not sure how much help we can be without those things corrected.. Based off what you have said however the animal apparently is still on food even though its not enough... Do you notice any noises coming from him or any mucous around his mouth/nose area?

no.. Just asking questions.. This seems rather acute and I wanted to make sure you didn't just throw him on cedar bedding or something..

Here's a thread to a proper tank set up.. I don't use tanks but the temps are the same for a rack... You have to get your temps and humidity right and go from there...
