    No i do not have a uvb lamp. Where I live it is really warm most of the time so he lives outdoors. Since the bite he has been indoors which means no sun.. i have been taking him outside for a bit of sun the last few days. Thank you very much :)

    I hope not... he went for three over three consecutive days. His tummy worked on those days but hasnt since.. back legs still not working but he has feeling them more in the one than the other. The shell seems to be healing though. I am wondering if he shouldnt go for more..

    Hi Guys, Hendry seems to have discolouration on his neck should i be concerned? He does not seem to enjoy getting soaked any more either..

    No, not yet. They tried to weigh him but he is too small for their scale. Need to get an electric kitchen scale to weigh him so that the vet knows what dosage to give him.

    No not yet we think he has brusing in his shell so it hurts to use them. He does have feeling in them.
