Yes that is a good thing -- you want him gaining weight and basking and eating --- what is he eating? Any of the salad?Update: He's been basking really good. He has also been eating a lot lately. Before he started eating well I weighed him and he was about 20-21g. I weighed him this morning and now he is 25g. I'm not sure if that is a good thing or not. But im glad hes eating and seems to be gaining weight.
