marijuana and Savannah monitor!

So for some background. My sav had been a properly supportes guy since day one due to the info on this forum. He had been an active and fast moving sav for a long time. I was a proud owner.

4 months ago I moved to a new house and he was in a still good cage of 8x4x4 feet. He continued to be the active brat who never stops roaming around and destroying anything he can. 2 months ago he started getting lazier and lazier and eventually gain weight and can't she'd it off despite of all the help I got on this forum.

Here's more info. Since we moved in we had smelled marijuana every night. I complained several times as its so strong I had to leave the basement at night. 4 days ago I finally took silicone to seal all the cracks and gaps from the offending neighbor. The smell stopped! Finally after 4 months of hell.

Here's the funny thing. The sav started becoming his old self a day or so after the smell stopped. He started climbing on the wood plank that he would not do for 2 months. Instead of laying around all day he started roaming around for hours trying to tear the cage apart. So far he's been back to his active old self for 2 days now. I don't know if its coincidence but I think the marijuana had an effect on him. If he continues to stay active for another week then I'm pretty sure its the drugs that's been sedating him all these months! I hope this is the case as I've done everything that's been suggested.

P.s. the tegu didnt seem to get affected although he wasn't in the house for as long as the sav. The sav did take 2 months of marijuana before getting lazy.

Call me crazy but I think constantly smoking second hand weed just might be the cause of his recent laziness! I'll post back in a week to report if he stays like this.
