Shelly recently has become so inactive that it’s really starting to worry me. He’s a 4 year old Greek and I’ve had him for about 6/7 months. Usually he’s super active, awake with his lights at 5am, eats like a pig, bulldozes around his enclosure but for the past week all he’s been doing is sleeping in one of his hides. He hasn’t been eating much and even when I hand feed him to make sure he’s eating SOMETHING he’ll only eat a little bit then stomp right back to bed.
He’s in a 6x4ft viv, basking temp is 37c, cool side is 26.6c, with shaded areas and his warm/ambient anywhere from 27-33ish depending on where I shoot in his enclosure. night time temp is 18.5c. He’s kept on orchid bark. I supplement his food with a sprinkle of calcium once a week and he’s fed dandelions, radicchio, lambs lettuce, friseé, courgette, cucumber, kale, spring greens, pak choy and Romaine lettuce all in rotation and all his food gets mixed with Arcadia’s Optimised52. I bathe him twice a week for about half an hour a time. He’s peeing and pooping as normal. His urates are quite runny. Aside from the worrying change in activity levels, he looks fine.
His UV runs for 4 hours a day, his lights for around 15 hours a day. Everything is set to timers and thermostats.
Please help!
