awww.... poor guy..... but now that i think of his injury it would probably be best to leave his cage how it is....... i wouldn't want it getting any worse.....

**Another Update**

My friend came over last night to see him (he's had a red tail with IBD so he knows what to look for..) We took him out put him on the floor and then I helped him to flip him over on his back.. He did nothing didn't even try to flip himself over.. We did it 4 times and out of the 4 he finely tried to flip himself over.. It's not looking to good for him right now.. But I still have hope hell make it thu..

Never give up hope! Sometimes it's all we have.

I'm really a newbie, but I thought i read somewhere that you probably shouldn't feed them when their health is off in any way? Especially since he ate well for you recently? I really don't know, just might be something to research further before feeding him.

Still have all my fingers crossed here!

[Charlet_2007]

well im feeding him in hopes hell go in a shed that way know all those stupid mites are gone..

***UPDATE***

Ok he hasn't shed yet but when I looked in his enclosure this morning it's been 3 days now since I treated him with the bedding lice treatment I see 0% of mites.. I'm hoping this is over with and now he can shed in one piece and he can start getting better.. Also since I've put news paper down he's not doing that flipping and all that.. So it might be a combination of things??
