I have a hatchling redfoot which I got in march. He's in a 3ft by 2ft tortoise table with a lid and tin foil on half. His UVB light died a month ago but I have been taking him outside when it's nice. I do have a 100 w che and a 60 w heat bulb. He has a varied diet of greens and I sprinkle calcium on about once a week. I try to soak every day but sometimes it might be every other or every three. His humidity never gets below 60 and I try to keep it at 80 above. His temps are 78-80 on cool side 80-85 on warm side and 73-78 at night. He was fine until this morning. But this morning he wouldn't open his eyes and wasn't moving. Even after I soaked him. His eyes did open for a little. I changed his substrate it was cypress mulch and moss. Now its repti bark its all I left. I think he might of been getting a respiratory infection. So I lowered the humidity and made his temp higher. But in the last hour his plastron has sunk in a little I'm really worried.
