Ok the only thing making me think he could still be alive is he is still soft- no sign of rigor at all -
Signs he has passed on
1. I can not wake him, bath, turning him on his back nothing - no response
2. He smells - but I was told that they give off a horrid smell when burmating to keep predators away
3. He has lost weight and has become multi-colored - head is reddish, beard is black, back is gray/ yellow ( he was more yellow/ gray to begin with)
4. He is at least 11 years old and has not always had the proper lighting, food and warmth as he was a pet in a daycare, living in a hallway- until I stared caring for him and finally brought him into my classroom- but even there getting his tank over 80 degrees was difficult.
I just keep telling myself that maybe I did feel a breath or a twitch, but deep down I am pretty sure he is gone, I just don’t want to burry him if there is a chance he could wake up ( he’s in his weekend set up at my house, I brought him home when he started acting like he could be getting ready to burmate, eating less, very picky and sleeping more - but he hasn’t moved in over a week, I move him in the hopes I will wake up and see he’s moved - but no
