sick frog-eyed gecko
I have had my frog-eyed gecko, Stewey, for about 3 years. He stopped burrowing 6 months ago and his appetite decreased. He has lost lots of weight and I think he might be dehydrated. Two days ago he convulsed and now seems to have no use of his limbs. Eyes still dialate and sips water from medicine dropper. Should I prepare for the funeral or is this some strange hibernation phase due to extreme changes in outside temperature? I've read that some geckos brumate, however, I can't find any info on what they look like while they're in that state. Please, if anyone can help, I'd hate to lose my friend.
