Hello,

Yes, that is perfectly fine. You can have a paper towel handy, like Karrie suggests!

Okay, thanks everyone for your help!!! I’ll update you after his vet visit today

Hi guys, thanks for all the help. Took him to the vet today turns out he has signs of MBD (which i knew because the person i saved him from did not take care of him at all or have uvb but i was able to prevent it from progressing) and he has hookworms and pin worms along with an RI blood test and AVD test was sent to the testing facility and in the mean time i have three antibiotics two for the parasites and one for the RI and the vet also prescribed an omnivore diet that i have to syringe feed him to help his digestive system start back up. Thanks everyone for the good tips and help!!!

Take care to wash your hands a lot after handling him, cleaning his enclosure, and touching anything that he may have walked on or that his vent may have touched. pinworms are easily transmitted to people if you swallow the microscopic eggs somehow. (Though it’s easy to treat in humans, but having worms in your poop is kinda freaky.)

Thank you!! I constantly wash my hands after handling him and anything in his enclosure and i constantly clean to ensure no reinfection hopefully
