How long since you moved him to the new cage? How long since he stopped eating? What are the ambient temps?

Do you have current pictures of him and the cage?

20 degrees is way too low, the lowest should be 55 degrees! hes gonna freeze!

[jurjenfromholland]

So anyone...??? Or shall i start with the
Novadox antibiotica that pet vet give
To me..??

 

[jamjam]

i think you would have been better off keeping everything in your first initial thread post. I dont know about the antibiotics for the suspicion of RI. but 95f is too hot for a panther, are both basking bulbs really necessary? with the decreased eating are prey bigger than what they have been in the past? is it possible shed may be coming? hunger strike? stress from the vet? just throwing out some possibilities and hopefully some more people comment

 

[jurjenfromholland]

if lowered some branches temps dropped a bit and he seems fine
atm but still not eating he is drinking so thats a good thing...
but i mean why would a vet discribe me novadox for 10 days if it isnt
needed??? and im searching for info about peeps that used that before?
and if people know why he has a reddish air pipe..???
nope same feeders same size.... so.....

 

[jurjenfromholland]

Come on guys help me out... pff
