    It is horrible that people let him get this bad. He is dehydrated and the sepsis has killed his appetite. I am hoping he will eat on Monday or I may consider having the vet tube feed him.

    If he makes a full recovery I am going to be doing a presentation through my local herp society on why proper care is important and tell his story.

    I wouldn't say he's doing better just yet, but he is at least getting meds now and I am trying my hardest to hydrate him.

    Once he goes back into his tank, he pretty much sits under the heat lamp until we mist, then he moves around some.
