I rescued Schmegal on May 12th from a craigslist add. Had no white basking light only a black Light no uvb and was on nasty dirty sand. I new he needed help. She said that he was 4yrs old. I weighed him and he weighs 296g. Poor thing is so skinny. I fed him a little salad when I got home and he gobbled it right up and acted like he wanted to eat my fingers. I left him to bask and enjoy the warmth and uvb. The next day I cleaned out his cage. Got rid of the nasty sand and put in tile. Sanitized everything and gave him a nice log to climb on. He is very skittish and when I first when to pick him up he hissed and opened his mouth at me. Just.to be safe I put a glove on but he was fine just scared. I gave him some water also from a dropper. He though it was food and kept trying to eat it but he figured it out ans started drinking. He will even eat out of my hand. Loves his salad and of course his bugs. His poo is a little messy but I'm sure that's from neglect so I will keep an eye on it. Here are some before and after pictures. It want until the next day that I could see he was a yellow color with a very pretty orange beard.
I am missing part of my tail and 2 toes on one foot
