If it does happen again, which I'll bet it wont, do not cool the little guy too rapidly. Just do exactly what you did and that is bringing it into a warm shadded area.
I'm glad you got to him in time.

: Just wanted to say thanks to those who responded. My Sulcata is fine now and I do believe that he was over heated. He was in a large screen enclosure but didn't have any shade available to him. I know better now and will make the necessary changes so it doesn't happen again. I'm just glad he's okay. I was so worried yesterday and was glad for your help. thanks!!!!!!
