My savanna monitor is not eating. I got him a week and a half ago. We have tried pinkies, super worms, egg, hot dog, turkey dog food, crickets. He as only eaten a couple bites of egg and a piece of hotdog. He is very skinny and we have been soaking him in water, putting him in his basking area and now feeding him Herpcare -electrolyte and appetite stimulant. He goes in the water and stays there most of the time or lays near it. The Herpcare (although only given once so far) does not seem to be working. His tank is 75 gal, he is 17 inches long. One side of his tank is at about 85 and the other is about 110. He has a hiding place in the middle of his hank and a heat light and rock on the hot side of his tank and water on the warm side. Is there any other options before taking him to the vet. Has anyone had this problem with theirs and if so what got them to eat. I have read online everything and nothings working.
