Ok - So I am back from Walmart.
I took him out in the sun for a little bit - and then used the syringe and fed him some squash and apples with pedialyte.
He only ate about 1 teaspoon, but he did lick it off of the tip of his mouth (reluctantly) as I kept adding more until he tried his best to run away from me.
I do not want to make him use all of his enery being stressed out.
He is now sitting in a warm
bath next to me.
How much rehydration do they actually get from the
bath.
He has always hated me putting him in water and - faliled around as if I were drowning him.
Today however - he seems to be very content in the water - and it is clear that the
bath makes him happy.
He is so thin - I can feel the bones in his back.
I am so sad.
By the way - yes the sand was bought at the pet store and it is silica sand.
The light is the kind that goes over a fish tank, the long florescent type,
Any further suggestions?
Oh, and is is possible to over do with the warm baths?
This is his second one today, is it ok to give him more later on?
Thanks,
Rhonda
