He looks very sick. His tail and hips are very thin but his belly is very bloated. I would get him checked for internal parasites by a veterinarian right away.

Do you plan on keeping him as a pet and taking care of him or are you trying to fatten him up so that you can sell him? Eating Tokay Geckos will not cure AIDS!

I would stick to roaches or crickets. Do not try and get him fat quickly. I hope this is a pet for you. But he really needs a vet more than anything right now.

Chicken livers are not a good food source. These animals require whole live prey such as crickets, roaches, and other insects. I find it disturbing how many people from your area of the world come on these forums looking only for ways to "fatten" their tokays up to resell them. They do horrific things to these beautiful creatures. I hope that you are not one of them.

I agree. The cure for aids rumor is just rediculous and cruel. And most of all UNTRUE.

Most of us are here because we love geckos and own them for pets, not for eating or science experiments. If your purpose is to make them fat only for resale, then you have probably come to the wrong place for advice.
