Sorry to hear that. Is he eating? I think that usually makes a big difference on their chances as hatchlings.

When I got him he ate solidly for a month and then he got lethargic and quit eating. He's eaten a few bites in the last couple weeks and he still moves around a little but he's so lethargic and slow. I feel horrible for him cause I could tell he grew from the first month I had him and now he hasn't done much of anything.

I would quarantine Spaz from Bourbon and Fran as a precaution. The small one's like / need temps a little higher than adults.
Water for adults at 75* but babies 80*. Even when changing the water get it to 80* before it goes into the tank , no shocking changes , be consistent on temps with babies healthy or sick !

He is quarantined and has been and the temps are up but he isn't responding to anything. I think he's gonna pass on. Today may be his last day
