I guess I was thinking more of something to hold him in until we're able to get to the vet. He has MBD and I'm worried about him falling/getting hurt in his tall viv because he's not as strong. Maybe I'm thinking of the wrong term..
So I would like to set up a hospital bin for Montague since I am worried about him falling/getting around in his viv. How should I go about this? Pictures would be most useful.
I have a large plastic tub that I got when moving, would this be suitable? Should I put substrate at the bottom? I take...
Regarding my previous post, and thanks to @Beman 's help, I am almost certain Montague has MBD. I take full responsibility for this and believe I could have done more research before obtaining him to have prevented this, so I am now taking the chance to do as much research as I can on them to...
@Beman @NashansCamos Thank you both so much for your help. I will see what we can do for vet treatment as soon as possible. Currently calling around to get best price ideas. The closest one is still a couple hour drive, so any tips on travelling?
Looking at the bulb, it says it's a T8. I will move his basking spot closer to the bulb to give him the proper UVI. Since moving I have been taking him outside for a couple hours at a time, especially when it's in the mid 70s, he loves it. I never leave him in direct sunlight though, always just...

These are kind of old as I have no way of obtaining new photos, but here's Montague and his enclosure a few weeks ago. The third image is the most recent. (I have since moved his basking spot down after buying a new UVB, I had it higher to accommodate the lower temperatures...
Yes, that's correct, it's a linear T5HO fixture. I last replaced the UVB right before I left him in my father's care. I will try to get photos but I'm currently without a phone.
Sort of an update: His mouth is no longer sitting open, but he's still sleeping and I'm afraid to stress him out by poking him/shaking the cage to wake him. They don't usually sleep in the day, do they???
I'm new to owning reptiles, so I figured what's the best way to get information than to do a butt-load of research on them online? Tell me what I can improve upon, wise ones.
