he was hell on wheels when I first got him due to mites, and pin worms. he was 350g when I got him and dropped all the way down to 250g before he held his first meal down. I thought he was a lost cause but he pulled threw. regurged from feb 2013- june then held his first meal down. I almost sold him last month and this month he turned purple on me so I am glad I kept him. I cant wait till the summer to see him outdoors.
