Many thanks for the PM update on your recently ID'd female leo Uzi. I'm happy to hear that her appetite is healthy & her poops regular!

I've never heard that a greenish yellow body is unhealthy....

I don't know whether your thin stick-on floor tiles provide any insulation.

Here's an image of 6 pieces of Flat, Stackable Slate that Etsy sells for $15.99. I found it on another leopard gecko...

Hi ~

Thanks for sharing these details about your leo Taco: diabetes & being a hermaphrodite!

I wonder whether a diabetic leopard gecko is not as rare as one thinks. You've gone to great...

Good observation, Blush50!

I hope Kaoshani used the Silver Sulfadiazine Cream 1% not only on Elliot's hemipenes, but also on the slightly reddened tail and that red rear foot.

Sorry if I already asked. How much substrate does Donnie have now? I'm not sure how fire-safe it is to use the Ultratherm heat mat underneath a substrate thicker than a slate cheese board (~1/4 inch...

Hi Spotted Dragon ~

We'd love to see leo Nel in her new environment -- a 48x24x18 animal plastics cage! Better now than never! :banana:

I "think" a DHP could use a Herpstat dimming thermostat. Maybe an ON/OFF pulse thermostat would work just fine. Perhaps the only difference might be a shorter "DHP bulb" life with the pulse...

Once you get all 3 supplements, here's how to use them.

Feed Uzi lightly dusted prey 3x per week. Feed what he consumes in about 15 minutes -- more if he seems hungry.

Certainly, I love updates!

The Oregon Coast rocks! I first visited when I was 3 months old. My lifelong dream was to retire on the coast. Here I am! :banana:

The top-opening 20 gallon long =...

ALL Uzi's legs look much better than I had hoped! :cheer: Each leg seems to bend at a right angle at his "elbows"! I don't see any bowed limbs.

He's doing great eating too. I recommend feeding...

That's excellent!

That fixture looks fine to me for your 50 watt DHP.

Do you see any special instructions on the DHP packaging itself?

For whatever reason I can NOW see both your videos. :banana: Please share a 2nd video that focuses closely on Uzi's front legs.

Uzi's back legs look alright. His right front leg bends a little. I...

Hi ~

Your video only shows as a black rectangle with the words:



Can you figure out how to make your video shareable?

You are welcome! I'm sure he appreciates your TLC.

Can you give him a bigger enclosure like a 20 gallon long: 30 x 12 x 12 inches tall?


Please share a video. A video is a crucial diagnostic...

Hello ~

What dimensions is Uzi's enclosure? Leos can see both red & blue lights. Buying an appropriately sized Ultratherm heat mat is your best bet. That will keep his ground temps between...

Hornworms are excellent sources of calcium (even undusted) & moisture. I don't believe that hornworm's sharp-looking spike is sharp at all.



Hornworms should be kept in a cooler @ ~55*F,...

Here's an image I borrowed from the 'net. Have you an image of Donnie's new slate platform & hide?

/\ WOW, Michele! Shaking my head back & forth. Is Miss MooMoo a bit hefty?

Thanks for your update! Donnie is doing extremely well adjusting to his new home. i hope he likes the bedroom. At least...

The "line"/newer tail end I see is maybe 1 inch from his tail tip. The tip seems a little rounded. The skin texture may be different there.
