Thanks everyone for all the advice and support with him ♡ i really appreciated it all. I've grown so attached to him after all the stuff I've had to do for him and all the countless hours bathing and going to the vet and trying to get him to eat. I can't imagine not having the goofy little...

Desmond is improving slowly day by day :) Today we reached a very important milestone! I had to share a photo to celebrate :)

UPDATE: He ate a little bit of Mazuri!

Yea on those days that it was about 85 I took him outside and had him soaking in direct sunlight. Seemed to perk him up a little bit. The vet is saying there's really not much else I can do. We have tried everything. They keep hinting at maybe it's time to let him lose the fight and put him...

He hasn't eaten since the day he took those few bites of squash. Still keeping up with soaks twice a day and offering him food several times daily. Have tried everything but I refuse to give up. Every now and then he will move a little bit but for the most part he's a stationary rock. Really...

Hasn't eaten any more but he did move around a little bit after his soak this morning. :)

PROGRESS!!!! For the FIRST time he is eating! I have tried everything possible and today I got a butternut squash for the torts and my bearded dragon and decided to try and see if he would be interested after his soak. He couldn't bite it because he's so weak so I boiled it for a while and made...

He is not doing too well. :( it's a tough struggle with him. Taken him to the vet 5 times already and about $600 later still not much improvement. He doesn't eat on his own and he just lays still all day. Cant lift his head or move his legs well at all. Going to keep trying though. its going to...

In the splits! Lol

Humidity is good I have the entire screen tops covered except for the little area where the bulb goes. So humidity stays right up between 60 before I mist in the morning to 70-80 through the day.

Haha oh believe me it is driving me crazy that It's not centered too! However the top will not slide open because the closet wall blocks it if it's centered :( lol. So I'm thinking about moving the entire enclosure and dresser someplace else just so I can scoot it over 2 inches :p

Hudson got a new home today!! But he won't come out of hiding :( I'm so excited for him to explore his new giant kingdom :D

This is an amazing idea! He drinks water when I soak him so that will be a way to force him to get at least a little nutrients in him. Thank you! I also got him a bigger enclosure today so that I can control the heat more. Unfortunately on the way home it shattered in the bed of the truck so I'm...

Thank you! I'm gonna focus on meeting these temperatures today.

Yes he's still alive :) I've been worried about him as well but thanks to you and everyone here we are on the right track. I did take him to the vet. He's malnourished, has got MBD, and was severely dehydrated. They trimmed the nails back just a tiny bit enough so they don't continue to grow...
