Gieco has about 3-4 of his tail encased in shed..its very waxy looking and one scale here and there will fall off...I do give him warm baths 2x daily and use a soft baby toothbrush on it..His set up is 105 basking with a spotlight that also provides uva..he has 2 uvb reptisun 10.0 one in front and one in back on top of the wide screen..openings in the screen are about 1.4 inch and hes outside 20-30 mins per day. ambient air is 95 and cool side is 87 with 2 hides both on the cook and hot side of his 40 gal breeder. He gets calcium with d3 5xweek and reptivite 2x week..not eating really well due to worming meds hes now off of for the 3rd day...eats 20-30 crickets per day hormworms as a treat and dubia or lobster roachs are fed daily. His bowel movements are normal in his bath every morning but also about noon every day he has a watery poo that is well formed and his urates are bright white and well formed. I am thinking the watery poo is due to the worming meds still in his system..hes not stressed usually and active running around his viv. I am a bit concerned about his tail and the watery poo. Any help would be greatly appreciated! He is gaining weight...hes gone from 17 grams 3 weeks ago or so to 57 today..seems to be gaining a gram or two a day. His scales look great and his eyes are bright, mouth is bright pink and not pale. Once a week I do give him baby food greens as hes not yet eating all that much salad which is turnip greens, mustard greens, shredded spaghetti squash, prickly pear and mango or papaya...sometimes will get some babyfood fruit but not much and not often. I keep his viv steam cleaned weekly <cept when he had worms, then every day> and spot clean if he has a booboo in his viv...and hes on tile substrate....basking is about 8-9 inches from his basking light and uvb.
