hi... when you say 'on point' do you mean correct temperature? the temp stays between 28 and 32, is that ok?
we have had him for one week so maybe he is just settling in?
ill try one without in a couple of days because we are trying to let him settle as suggested.
seem to be able to see ok.
do you mean to give him drops of water in his mouth?
Thanks for the help!

The temperature should be 32.5-35 C on the warm side to 24 C on the cool side. If you meant that 32c was his highest it could be the problem. When I mentioned some can take up to 3 weeks, it's a small % and due to him being so thin I would not be comfortable waiting that long personally. If it were me I would increase the temperatures first. If that does not help then I would proceed by dropping a few drops of water and/or pedialyte on his mouth and hopefully he will lick some up. Try to do it without taking him out of the enclosure which can stress him out even more.
