Try raising the temps to about 80.I like my temps more towards 80 during the day.Also what are you feeding them? Try feeding him something different. If you feed them just crickets and baby food try mealworms,or fresh mashed apricot or even peaches. He may just be a picky eater, or he could have an internal parasite. If you can, take him to the vet.Hope he gets better.


:My crested male hasn't eaten in 5 days!! My temperatures are at 72 - 75 during the day. My female is eating, but not my male. I am going to give him Para-Zap for a while to increase his appetite and get rid of any worms then get a fecal test done. He must be hungry.......what do you think is wrong???He has never done this before.
:Thanks,
:Liz
