This morning when it took my RES outside to bask he was in the grass when i went to pick him and and when I did he was moving around his back left leg around fast so i looked at it and there was a ant on him biting him. Will he be okay? He's acting normal.

I hope you removed the ant. If he's acting normally, he should be fine.
