Hello all.
Monty has not fallen since a couple months ago. There is no bruising or swelling on him. His tail is only slightly darker than the rest of him.
It hangs sort of limp with a curl at the end, but he doesn't move it at all. This maybe explains why he hasn't been moving the past day or so.
He does not react when I touch his tail. He does, however, react when I touch his foot, jaw, etc.
Please help. I may not be able to bring him to a vet on Christmas or around this time because it may be closed. I don't know. I will give my local vets a call to see if they are experienced with reptiles, or if they are even open soon.
I am very worried now. If anyone can give me a way to feed him (he is refusing food since three days ago) I would love that.
What do we suggest for the meantime?
I want to get a plastic tub, put a towel on the bottom, screen on top with some branches and things inside as well as maybe a shallow water dish if he needs it. Put his lights on top and gently set him inside.
That is my plan. Otherwise, I don't know what to do.
