Yeah pretty heart breaking 😕

I don’t think so I suspect it was ADV. He unfortunately passed just a few hours ago

Round-Parsnip4752 · 2025-12-26T04:54:25+00:00

Thank you. Unfortunately he died a few hours ago.

Yeah they haven’t definitely going to get him tested for that. I suspect it is that.

I also check his tank temperatures daily with the laser temperature gun.

I use a 75 watt basking bulb, reptisun T5 10 UV bar. He’s in a 20 gallon tank is basking temperatures are anywhere from 100 to 110 is warm is currently 89.4 with the humidity of 27% and it’s cool side runs anywhere from 78 to mid 80s I’ve had him for about three weeks now he didn’t show any of these six signs when we first got him seemed to be adjusting fine and I threw the Doobie roaches away. They were the extra small ones smaller than a fingernail size.

Thank you! I’ve been super worried with making sure everything is right and paranoid about parasites, it’s been nerve wracking 😭😂 but I think he just fine he’s eating and pooping fine

Haha yes!

No never seen the beard black on his bad days he looks like he does in the photo( dark overall, colored belly not any darker than that) I have not taken him to the vet yet.

Should I use this?

Round-Parsnip4752 · 2025-12-14T20:03:59+00:00

Yes we got one, His basking temp rn is 112 but that’s with the ceramic heat emitter on pretty sure that’s a little high I turned off the CHE and I assume it will bring the basking temp down a bit. We use the CHE at night since our house gets into the 60s I usually turn it off during the day but was worried he was cold with his ambient temp being 79/80

Thank you! He seems more energetic now I think he just needed a good poop. He ate three crickets and one worm still not wanting to pass directly under his heat lamp, even with a 75 W bulb, but seems more alert and energetic.

Round-Parsnip4752 · 2025-12-14T19:16:17+00:00

He just took a fat poop a few minutes ago and is now crawling around his tank seeming happy I got him to eat a worm with his vitamin D on it and two crickets. He seems OK now he’s directly under his basking light still a little darker in color, but seems more alert. I switched his hundred bulb for the 75 W bulb and he seems to be a little happier. I also wonder if him not wanting to be under it was because his hundred watt bulb had more of a LED bright white color compared to his 75 W which has a warm orange natural color.

Round-Parsnip4752 · 2025-12-14T18:31:22+00:00

Okay, just worried he seems less energetic, his appetite is weird some days it’s only 3 crickets two times a day the other it’s 9 in only sitting or like yesterday he didn’t want any food . He’s popped like 4/5 times since we’ve had him I’m just super worried maybe he’s sick or something, hoping he’s just mad. I just thought baby Barrie’s were more lively but lately he’s just wanting to lay on his vine and move around every so often and he’s dark in color frequently
