Hi all,
My horsefield, Rex has started to act very strangely. Rex is supposedly under a year and when we got him in May he was already pyramiding.
For the last two weeks, he has not been eating. Sometimes he will eat from my hand, but he normally just ignores it. This is so out of character for him as he normally eats very well.
I have tried weeds (dandelions), lettuce, rocket, cucumber, literally everything on the lists posted!
I am still bathing him every other day. He doesn't wake up easily either. He used to march straight out to his light as soon as it went on. Now he doesn't at all unless I move him.
The heat in the UK at the moment is high so not under his light, his enclosure is about 20 degrees c and under the light it is 35. Could his change in behaviour be because of the heat?
Since the attached picture of his enclosure, we have changed the bedding to coconut soil.
Any tips? I am so worried about him.
