Here’s the pics I promised. He’s looking a lot better than he used too cuz of my meddling. I helped his orginal owners get him on a proper diet, but they weren’t dedicated enough and he would go weeks without food... anyways now he’s doing fine. His set up is not what I want it to be. (40 gal cage, improper uvb, heat gradient is decent though) and I sadly can’t do anything yet so he’s stuck in a subpar layout. All he has is a wood plank, a log, and a podium. I’m eventually gonna fix that and make it more intricate and interesting. Aight I’ll quit the rant and give y’all the pics
Him in his cage, just chillin
His good side, very easy to tell he’s underweight, however he’s getting fatter everyday
Front angle. You can see how the eye infection causes swelling
His infected eye half closed,
his under eyelid is very swollen, however it used to be worse
Infected eye wide open. Makes me sad seeing those beautiful eyes being so pouty and so droopy. I’m hoping eventually the swelling will go down. I’m attempting right now to home remedy it’s using apple cider, which is a natural antibiotic. However if it doesn’t work I’m taking him to the vet to get eye drop
Me and him playing pool. He’s a total shark, I do not recommend playing with him, he got 60 bucks off of me too.
Just surveying his newfound land, ready for the adventures his old bones will take him.
So that’s Draco! I love this guy so much he’s a such a sweetie and a total old man, I’m hoping to give him four years of a happy home after being rehomed four times now.
My non rescue girl jerald has done a lot of waving lol, I’ve never seen her do it and she’ll come to the front of her cage to wave at him. He’s done a bit of head bobbing to, its funny cuz they could just ignore Eachother considering they’re both half across the room and in seperate cages, but hey it’s not doing no one harm.
Ps I treat his eye twice a day in hope to keep the infection under control.
