For about 2 weeks now, Milo hasn't been himself. I changed his cage decorations completely with a new piece of driftwood, which is when I started noticing the change. He refused to go and bask, and would just sulk in the corner on the cool side, or inside his hide. He spent almost 3 days straight just staying in his hide this week until I pulled him out and removed the hide completely. I went to go give him a bath last night when I noticed he had this yellow hue on his belly. Now, he's always had a little bit of gold mixed in with his beard and belly but I don't remember it being this much. I could be just paranoid, or there might be something going on with him. He also has been showing his stress marks more than usual (I thought he was just pissed because I changed his cage around), and his appetite hasn't been well. I have been trying to make him hungry enough to eat his veggies but he continues to refuse. He ate a few of his pellets last night though so it's not like he's not eating at all... but tonight, he wasn't interested in his roaches at all. He's been spoiled with hornworms and silkworms, so I'm unsure if he's just not a fan of roaches anymore, or if he's not feeling well.
Anyways, here's some pics. I don't see any lesions or weird spots on his skin... it's just this weird yellowness. It could just be his markings and natural coloring, but I really am not sure. What are your thoughts? And if no one is sure, would it be harmful to treat him with Lamisil anyways? I just recently took him to the vet and I don't think I can afford another vet appointment unless I 100% have to.
