Hello,
Frank looks great! How is he doing now, has he finished the Metronidazole?
I am glad to hear he was all cleared of coccidia now.
The humidity is fine at 25% but it is less than that on the basking. It is hard to keep it at a good level during the winter. At least he isn't minding his baths so much now!
The basking temperatures sound great for him now. Be sure that the warm end doesn't get too high, as the ambient will climb too much & he will get over heated & not spend enough time basking. Is he enjoying his warmth now?
It sounds like he is active also, especially when he is out of his tank. So he enjoys climbing everything? That is great exercise for him, too.
He isn't eating his greens much yet? The hornworms are fine to be used as a staple though since they are not very fatty, but they are larger & higher in water content, too. Everything in moderation, so just monitor his weight & limit him to a certain amount along with any other greens or bugs you can get him to eat to maintain his weight.
It sounds like he should be getting enough food. You can always supplement a little bit with the critical care if he isn't eating enough greens, etc. If he is taking in more fluids than food that would be why his stools are more watery right now.
He still may be a little slown down for the season, too.
Let us know how he is doing.
