Hi and welcome! Sorry it is not under happier reasons. What I suggest is to go to the Health section and do a new thread there, like you did here in introductions. Tell us how your keeping him... temps highs and lows, night and day. Lights: what type and how long on for Enclosure: what is it like, size, substrate, ect.., Humidity level? Soakings? Has he eaten? Eyes open? Active and alert? You just got him, so that could be the main problem, but lets see what the answers are to the rest of the questions, okay?

Why don't you think he isn't doing well? How is your cage set up? Your little guy will need plenty of moisture and a decently warm enclosure. I'd try and post some pics or explain the way you have his enclosure!

Hello and welcome. Hope we can help.

As Jacqui said we need more info-there are lots of red foot keepers here. I keep red foots so feel free to give me a PM with your problems.

Hi Brian and welcome to the Forum.

I was confused by the site at first too, but if you use it regularly, it comes naturally quite soon. If you have any particular questions about the site I'd be happy to help you, but in the meantime, if you are worried about your posts not showing up, that's because new members have to make 5 posts and have them approved and once that happens your posts will show up right away.
