Question I was away for a few days and I came back to see that one of my lizards was dying from malnutrition and dehydration. He died this morning and now my other lizard is showing the same symptons of dehydration. How do I take care of this lizard so it won't end up like my other one. Please get back to me when you can.
Answer Hi Jameli-At this point the only hope for the remaining lizard is a vet visit
A healthy lizard should not die if left only for a few days unless the tank temps got way too hot for it and it was literally baked by the heat
I really wish that I could be of more help to you but something this serious needs to be treated by a vet
I'm sorry about your loss
