Boys in the sun and updates

Hello,

Well today is a beautiful 80 degree day so the boys are getting some fresh air and sunshine. I thought this would be a good opportunity to take some pics and give some updates.

Rex: Rex's mouth has healed from the cut he had inside, and he is doing wonderful as usual. He is the easiest, most mellow of the bunch.

George: He still has the edema but seems to be getting a little better. After he started antibiotics his colors became very dull and he stopped changing in to his sleeping colors at night. Prior to this he was going a week at a time without eating and then would eat 1 bug. After the antibiotics he would eat nothing but silk moths for 2 weeks. Today he ate 6 hornworms (small to medium ish sized) and I was so very happy. He is getting his color back (even at night) and I am hoping he is feeling much better.

Monty our adopted boy: Today was his last dose of metronidazole for his giaridia and he will be going in for x rays tomorrow due to his lab work (increased white count and high uric acid) and hanging his legs a lot. If he is confirmed to have gout we will try a round of treatment to see if it helps.

couldnt get a good pic of him without the screen as he was really soaking the rays on that side of the cage.

The boys look very handsome. Glad that you were able to get them out for some natural UV. I'm sure it will do them all some good. Glad to hear they are all showing some improvement. I hope all goes well will Monty tomorrow. Keep us posted.
 
I'm glad they all had a nice sunning today. Awesome to hear they seem to be doing much better. I know there for a while it was really rough. You're such a good momma! :)
 
Gorgeous. So lucky to be able to get them some real sun.

Thanks. I am hoping they can get more this weekend too.

Thanks Jann. I am happy the boys are improving and am interested to see Monty's x Rays.
