Great, it sounds like the new UVB light is really helping
him out. Keep us posted on him!

Got home found him sleeping like that

Normal --- mine used to sleep in a small plastic cactus -- he would never get into or on that cactus now - the knitted covering is nice but not for nails --- too easy for them to get their nails snagged causing injury -- I would look for a different covering like maybe fleece or a cotton blanket etc --

Hello,

That is a very cute picture of him. As Karrie suggested, perhaps use a solid piece of fabric like fleece for
a hammock. Use the crocheted blanket as a cover at night for him, to keep him warm.
