Probable respiratory infection.

[Lion]

My general rule of thumb, is wait till you see 2 symptoms. You now have 1. Once you see two, it's time for a vet.

Good rule, thank you! Needless to say, I'll be on the lookout.

You mentioned that your hot side is unstable... Do you have a UTH with a thermostat? Also a heat lamp on a dimmer?

Thank you for the tips. I do have a UTH and a thermostat, but they aren't hooked up yet. I need to drill another hole into the edge of the terrarium's lid to get the probe inside... Another reason that I'd just like to get another terrarium that already has the necessary openings to stick wires through for probes and sensors and whatnot. I've already had to drill one for the Repti-Fogger's sensor.

The heat lamp I have doesn't have a dimmer, but it's suspended above the screen. My oh-so innovative way of controlling temperature, for the time being, is either lowering it closer to the screen, or raising it further. Seems to make a difference of at least a couple of degrees.

Hi,

Is he shedding?

He is due, but he's currently not in shed. His belly has been looking pink, and I've been expecting to find him all blue and cloudy for the past week, but so far, nothing.
