This is gonna be a long post sorry in advance. So april 23rd my friend who cleans apartments called me and said there was a lizard in a closet sent me a pic and asked if I wanted it. It was a BD. She said the people had left that Thursday so he had been in a dark closet in a 10 gallon tank with nothing but a rock from Thursday til Tuesday. I went to the pet store and got the basics until I got paid 2 weeks later. He ate 20 crickets that day and He drunk water but only from a dripper. He did well for about 2 weeks. Then he just stopped eating. I have every insect... Superworms, crickets, roaches, bsfl, hormworms, silk worms and butter worms (I also have 6 sugar gliders ). He didn't want anything. So last monday I took him to the vet. The dreaded coccidia and pinworms. The vet also said he was dehydrated slightly. So got a 3 day treatment he finished this past Wednesday. I have been given him water from a dripper 3xs a day and a slurry with a tiny amount of probiotic in it. He will eat a few of the bsfl but wants superworms mostly. Nothing else interest him. So I have cleaned his tank and everything with f10. I baked the rocks and his log at 300 for 2 hours and let it bake in the sun for 3 days it almost 100 here. So I go back Thursday to get gis fecal checked again. He is supposed to be 4 months he only weighs 21grams. His tail is dark and under his eye are black. He is now in a 40g tank he has a 75 watt zoomed bulb I have the reptisun T5 10.0 his temps are 110 in basking and 80 on cool side. I am using paper towels instead of the liner until he comes back negative.
