Sadly he died last night. We are heartbroken but loved having him for the short time we did. I never knew they were so charming and personable. Thanks to everyone here for advise, suggestions, and good thoughts.

About 3 ml total in a syringe- butternut squash & peas/green beans/asparagus. Should I mix some calcium or multivitamin in with it? Also wondering about how much of the milk thistle liquid he can have? It says a person can take up to 90 (omg) drops per day, so maybe like 1 or 2 for him? Also...

His color is still off, but he made it through the night. I was really worried he might not. He went out in the sprinkler today and drank some water- he perks up quite a bit when he’s getting rained on! : ) I also gave him some baby food & some water with a syringe. I was able to find milk...

It is so striking to see the glucose go from 189 on 4/18 to 1922 on 6/8. He is in the same condition this morning. I’ve been giving him water with a syringe and will take him outside later- he really likes drinking from the sprinkler. He had been eating yellow & green squash and bell pepper...

Original vet visit and then follow up after starting Allopurinol.

He exclusively ate Dubias when we got him and came with a colony, but he lost interest and I was glad because of the protein/gout. We have tried crickets, bsfl, & superworms. Swelling is still down in his arms. The pics posted the healthy one first, sorry about that. The sad one is today. Here...

He has taken .15 ml of Allopurinol daily since April 24. The swelling in his arms was severe and both are remarkably better. I am attaching a pic from today and one from about 10 days ago.

The UVB runs the length of the tank and there is no screen, so it is about 20” from the floor & 13” from his highest place to lay. He hasn’t been checked for parasites since June, but was ok then. For the last few days he has had a lot of little white poops, or weird slimy ones but they don’t...
