The people who bought him for me got him from a private breeder. Unfortunately he didn't make it [emoji17] no words for how devastated I am but I don't think it was anything I did
I've put him back in his vivarium for now, hoping that he isn't gone but we'll see.

His basking spot is...

Hello, my Horsefield Winston has started squeaking and is moving his head around like I've not seen it before. I picked him up late Tuesday evening, changed his substrate and enclosure round yesterday and then this had started today. Trying to attach a video of what he's been like.
