A quick update: He is pooping regularly now, and his stool isnt loose anymore. I have taken him off the mulch and now has paper towels instead. I am giving him vitamins with his vegetables twice a week and calcium once every two weeks (he has been eating all that calcium sand and his...
he hasn't pooped since, but he is eating well and running around. I feel like he's still clogged up.
Also, i learned that he doesnt like strawberries! weird.
it happened. I came home from school, checked on his tank and bam. his dish was full of a huge runny poo. a definite sign of the calcium sand being ingested. He was sitting on his perch satisfied with the gigantic mess he made. yay.

I'll be removing the sand ASAP

Im open for building, but if there are any good manufacturers in the us that aren't outrageously priced. A company like vivexotic. Just wondering, is there any way to get vivexotic vivs in the us?
it depends on the breeder, really. My lizard, who was 1 or 2 months old when i got him, was really open to handling after 1 or 2 days getting used to his new home and loved to crawl around on my hands and arms, sometimes even snuggle up under my collar as soon as i got him. If he isnt...
