I adopted yoshi over a month ago, he's a 3-year-old male. I thought I was ready and bought all the correct things but he just doesn't seem happy with me. It feels like every day there's something wrong with him, and I'm starting school next week and my mom was recently diagnosed with breast cancer and i don't think I can do it anymore so that's why I'm posting here to see if you guys can help me out.
Under my care, he has thrown up 3 times which i think its a lot. two weeks after I got him he began shedding and he's currently shedding his front legs and belly. His tail is dark so i think that's next. when i adopted him he weighed 300g which the vet told me is underweight so i have been feeding him a little extra but i think that's why he has been throwing up because this week I've been feeding him less and he hasn't thrown up. Today he has been acting really weird, in the middle of the day i found him sleeping under his half log, he woke up when i took it off him but i still found that weird and then he kept hanging out in the cool side even after i feed him DR. And tonight my mom told me after his lights went off he was laying down with his head straight up and his beard was extremely dark and his mouth was open.
I dont know if these behaviors are normal and im just overreacting but i took him to the vet the first week i adopted him and the X-rays and fecal test came back normal. im thinking of taking him to the vet again just to make sure everything is still okay. But at this point i dont know what to do, and if i do decide to give him up, where can i do that? i live in New York City and i wanna give him to someone who is experienced.
