[QUOTE="Lilith86, post: 1993014, member: 81145"] Hi everyone! I just wanted to update you all, Agni is doing great (I think). He is getting less grumpy about taking meds by mouth twice daily, and he seems to be healing well. He is bright and alert, crawling around his baby proofed cage, so he's fairly active for someone so soon out of surgery. He hasn't eaten anymore silk worms yet (he was thinking hard about it yesterday but ultimately rejected them), but I have been sneaking in an extra oral syringe of about 3 ml of various lizard friendly baby foods per day when I give him meds, trying to focus on the green ones rather than the sugary ones. He has not started to drink yet, but he does (mostly) tolerate me misting him down, though he hasn't lapped any water droplets off his nose. The surgical site looks pretty good to me. The vet said that a little bit of a scab is fine, as long as it's not dry and all the other tissues don't look inflamed, and it still pretty much looks like that today. We'll be taking him back in 5-7 weeks to have the sutures removed. Annyeong, the leo, seems to be improving too. The flesh of his toe is pretty much back to normal color, it's just the nail that is still black. I'm just keeping an eye on it at this point. I tried to make him a damp hid out of tupperware, but I think it's actually too small! He already has two hides, and one is near the corner where he poops.... don't really want to make that damp... so we might try to get a longer tank for him and then just get him an actual cave furniture hide and try either paper towels or moss to trap in the furniture. I gotta run now, but pictures later if people are interested! Thanks, everyone! I appreciate you all so much! I'd like to periodically post updates on this thread until Agni is fully healed so I can give you a happy ending to our story :) [/QUOTE]
