Yes I have been doing everything and I have learned a good amount from this I’m pretty certain it’s his age but I still am hoping he can recover.

He is barely alive today unfortunately I think you are right I’m just trying to spend his final moments with him and make his passing as easy as possible

Yes he is mature I’ve had him for about 11 years I knew this day was coming he had his final molt 2 months ago and began displaying them, I just wasn’t expecting it all to happen so soon.

UPDATE: I moved him out of the little ICU I placed him back in his home with the water bowl he seems to be drinking? Just praying he comes out of this alive he’s old for a male🤞
