That is wonderful you have already seen some drastic improvements with him then!
It is a great sign that his appetite has already increased, too. Continue with the daily calcium dustings like that & it should help out a lot with his new light also.
I am glad he doesn't have any trouble climbing then, hopefully you have caught it in time before it started affecting his bones in any way.
So the screen top has wide mesh? The mesh does block out some of the UVB though. <<< the area blocked by the mesh material can be as high as 30% , so effectly 30% of the UVA and UVB are blocked by the mesh.
So you might consider placing it underneath of the screen top if you get a chance so he can get within 6-8 inches from it. At 10 inches that isn't too bad. Does the light fixture have reflective backing on it?
It sounds like he is going to be just fine & loves to be held too.
I am sure he will love a tank upgrade also.
Let us know how he is doing.

He certainly looks happy and healthy .... a cheaky little bugger too ....Shawnt0012":1tsq9cye said:Today He's eaten a total of 13 crickets, and not even 3 days ago he wouldnt even eat 5 in a day and he still has another feeding to go!!
