Hey there people,
After originally mending Herman’s health unfortunately he has slipped into more health problems and I’m not sure what to do.
He has always had a cough/slight wheeze but recently I can actually hear it when close to him. This goes alongside with heavy breathing as I can feel it. He is about 1 and a half years old.
I’ve also noticed he doesn’t walk much anymore, he used to do laps but he doesn’t at the moment. He likes to sit under his heat lamp a lot now and will just pass out / nap under it.
When I go close or move the glass to open it on the vivarium, he does respond as he will then look up and be aware unlike when he was very not well when I first got him, so he isn’t lethargic to the point of where his eyes were constantly closed too but he has started doing the same symptoms of head fully jusy lay down and limbs kinda laid down like he was sunbathing.
He is still eating what is good, when I take him out he likes to move around like he is aware and stuff just doesn’t seem to be himself.
He started to sleep much earlier now, like he would stay awake the entire day from waking up and sleep about 2 hours before his lights come off. Bjt now it’s about 2 hours after he wakes up he will sleep / nap most of the day, eat food then go back to bed.
I’ll re fit the higher heat lamp bulb so it’s warmer in his enclosure currently it’s a 50 as 75 was overheating but it’s cold as of recently and I’ll try get humidity up.
Please let me know if you need information and what information you can give me, thank you.
