Thanks, guys. I'm just glad I got to spend the time with him that I did. It's so weird seeing the enclosure lights off! But I know it'll get easier

I didn't want to make a completely new thread. We finally came to the decision to have Izzy euthanized. It wasn't easy at all, but he had just given up. Vet didn't have many solutions, and he just wasn't gaining no matter how much I tried to feed. It was wearing the both of us down. I thought...

I'm not sure how much longer he's going to be hanging in there. Outside time usually made him super active to where I had to chase him a few times. Now he's been sitting here for about 45 mins. Pavement isn't hot either. It's not a hot day, but I thought some sun time might help. He's just been...

Sorry to hear. I know the feeling. I'm in a similar situation with mine. Except he's a bit more active, using the bathroom regularly, but seems to be going downhill regardless of the meds and upping his food. So I'm there with you! Hope yours gets better. It does take a long time. I had a...

So sorry for your loss :(

Funny. I think my two youngest are actually female, but we already named them Vincent and Julius (after the characters in the movie Twins). We tried Vicky and Julia, but....it's just not the same. Lol

I also noticed his eye when I watched the video after recording it. I hadn't noticed the eye before. He's been doing it for maybe a little over a month. It lasts a few seconds. Usually when I go to feed him, he'll do it and I drop some food in. He stops the twitching and seems like he starts...

My guy had a long blonde hair in his mouth once (I'm brunette). I thought it was just a small piece, but I pulled it and it just kept coming out. He did do something similar when I pulled it out, minus that kind of head shake.

Yes, panacur is the one. And yeah, he suggested two soaks a day. On top of that, after I feed him I just give him water via syringe and mix his food with a little more liquid. I got a video of his little mouth tic. Not sure if you guys have seen this before. https://youtu.be/B2LOvSLQj0U

I've thought about maybe the change and traveling affecting him, too, but I think his new enclosure is better. He's actually pooped a few times in there. I think it's all around warmer and he can get closer to basking. His older one was longer than it was wide and the heat was concentrated in...

Glad to read that you're dude is on the mend. You can find the Pangea mix at pangeareptile.com. they are awesome

I was able to have a few free hours this morning and took Izzy to the vet. Unfortunately, he went back to not eating or even being interested in anything. He's in a new enclosure where he seems more active. I also took him to work with me these last couple of weeks and had him outside, which he...

Thanks!! I'm not sure why we didn't check at Home Depot. Lowe's didn't have many options. We'll make a trip tomorrow. I appreciate it
