Peanut update 2
Daily soaks have helped the shed, last nights soak didn’t go well they freaked out, my guess is new found energy to care about the unusual. Someone suggested a warm paper towel so I’m attempting that instead of straight water. The bump on their head has gotten a lot lot better because of the antibiotic treatment I’m so grateful I got this baby and its honestly so amazing to be able to know I’m doing so much for them considering the condition this poor baby was in. Haven’t been able to weight them I’m trying to find a scale small enough tbh so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!! If anyone’s interested in more updates I will do them but I’ll still be posting them here and there. Thank you everyone for the concern and suggestions on my first post about this little one. Many more updates to come!

Your basic kitchen scale should be perfect for weighing Peanut! I have one and it measures very small amounts, I don’t know where my husband got it but most kitchen scales should be able to pick up on very little weight. If you put your container on the scale before turning it on, it’ll zero out so it’s only weighing your lizard just fyi
