Luthien":3tcdr4xg said:Temps - Basking spot 100-110F, Cool side 75-85F. Do you have a UVB source? His temperatures are correct and he does have a UVB source.
Substrate - No sand! Make sure you have a hard substrate such as tiles, reptile carper, newspaper For his whole tank I use paper towel which I change every so often.
Diet - No meal worms! He needs dubious, crickets, veggies, calcium and vitamins Normally I feed him crickets and phoenix worms while I also try to include collard and turnip greens with the occasional piece of strawberry. He has yet to eat any greens but on only one occasion have I managed to entice him to eat a bit of strawberry.

What type of uvb bulb and how old is it? I have a Reptisun 10 which is about half a year old.
How often do you dust with calcium/vitamins? Usually I dust all of his food with calcium daily but I haven't really looked into vitamins.
Do you bath him often or not? I bath him about once a week.
Glad you got him to poo.
Curiously, what is the protein powder that the vet gave you? Carnivore Care? Honestly I'm not sure on that one but I think it's something similar to that.

Iggy is only around 2-3 months old so I have been crediting his lack of interest in vegetables to his young age.

He is even interested in his phoenix worms again! However he still is keeping his eyes closed and this worries me as I know this can't be good so I was wondering if anyone knows anything about how I can get help him.
Anything can help.Igneusthelizard":2aabg2a0 said:I would but my camera's not working right now and my cell phone pictures are really low quality, but if you want I could probably get some pictures from that on here.
