Eyes glued shut on new emaciated baby rescue that was abandoned.

We ordered some XS dubia that should arrive any day now, I’m excited to see if He will eat them on his own! And yes, I do have some spare CHEs that I guess I could turn on at night? But the CHEs will still get the temps up to like 90 or so. What temperature would you recommend I use for him at night?

And will do! So far not much has changed aside from him overall looking a lot better and opening his left eye regularly, he still keeps it closed for most of the time but that’s probably due to him not being used to the lights fully.

90 is too hot - your looking for around 80

Yeah that’s what I figured, I don’t need the CHE then, the temps typically stay around that range already.

New update, Lucky is now EATING ON HIS OWN!!!! He’s regularly keeping both eyes open well and tried dubia roaches for the first time today and loved them!! He had quite a lot of fun hunting them down and it was really heartwarming to see )

unfortunately though, his right eye is still looking rather rough and gunking up, and he’s still keeping that one closed for most of the time. I’ve been gently cleaning it and giving the antibiotic eye drops as usual, I just haven’t been able to give him the diluted raw honey yet (been very very busy unfortunately) but I will try that soon!

Here’s some bonus pics of him happily basking after eating and drinking on his own today! Overall aside from the right eye he’s been looking a million times better, I’m so happy for him =)

Oh that made my day, he is such a cutie. That pic of his mouth wide open like that was the best fun he ever had got me lol.

Hello,

Wow, he is really looking a lot better, keep up the great work with him. I am happy that
he's eating on his own right now. He sure was hungry!
Definitely use the honey for his eye so it will improve like the other one. I hope he continues
to improve steadily for you.
Feel free to post more pictures anytime!
