You're so welcome, Paolo. I'm sorry your gecko passed away. Thanks for sharing.

Here's a daffodil to ease your pain:

Are you following Schedule 154? Last I heard you were using Herptivite multivitamins + Zoo Med's Repti Calcium withOUT D3.

You're welcome, Lawrence! "Baby steps" is what you're watching for as Opie settles in.

Excellent on your Pro Gutoad Insect Diet purchase! I'm glad you purchased just 1 pound! Keep it in an...

I'm glad Opie is settling in to his Exo Terra 24 x 18 x 12 inch home.

It's common for new & young leos to be very skittish. What you're seeing is quite normal. Give Opie more time to get...

You're welcome.

Is your photo of Gus an earlier photo than the first photo you shared? Please feed Gus 3x per week -- all he can eat in about 15 minutes!

There are a huge amount of details when...

Welcome to Geckos Unlimited!

I, too, doubt that's "stick tail".

40-60% ambient humidity is ideal for leopard geckos. A sock filled with rice lowers excessive humidity. Sometimes it's difficult...

I'm quite sorry to hear that. Does he vomit after you feed him too? If so, maybe he's too full.

8.5 grams is severely underweight for a 6.5 month old crested gecko.

Is your thermostat's probe also inside your leo's warm dry hide?


Have you been following this chart?
What dimensions is your Exo Terra?

Are you able to see all the posts on your comprehensive thread since Hilde merged them all?

Let's catch up, Lawrence. I have seen all your posts. I will begin with this one.

Where have you...

Welcome to Geckos Unlimited!

Please share a photo of your crested gecko.

So your crested gecko may be impacted with mealworm skeletons. Is he staying hydrated?

Place a couple drops of olive...

Every leopard gecko is different. Your 8-10 mo leo has been extremely skittish for the past month. He has a 20 long: 30 x 12 x 12 inches tall. Let's try a few...

What are these leos' genders?
How many hides have you for them?
Sometimes by the time hostility is evident, it's too late.

Even a couple females could have a bad night. One leo could be the...

What I've heard is ~70% organic topsoil to ~30% play sand.

Please share a photo of his enclosure.


Have you covered the sides & back with some sort of paper or vinyl clings?
Have you many secure places for him to hide within his environment?

Instead of the cumbersome baggy supplement method, place a small amount of each supplement into separate tall 32 ounce deli containers. Label by colors: orange, blue, & green. Add crickets or...

What size enclosures have you? It's best to house all leos individually. PetCo may be having their frequent $-per-gallon sales right now. For a 20 long: 30 x 12 x 12 that's $20.

If you plan on...

Soon Anthem will have a much warmer home. I hope that helps him be out and about even more!

BTW, are you using the baggy method to dust or have you discovered an easier way?

The grout sealer you've linked is also "Low odor, water-based formula". In that respect it = the Miracle sealant I shared a picture of. I don't know how the other ingredients compare.

All I can...

When your leo is about 6 months old cut back feedings to Monday, Wednesday, & Friday with maybe a mealworm snack on Saturday.

When providing UVB for shade dwellers like leopard geckos, Dr. Fran Baines (DVM and lighting guru) recommends a backup dose of a powdered D3 supplement @ 1-2 feedings per month.

Please continue on this thread. You can ask all sorts of questions there.

Thanks!

Wow!

Thanks so much, Digs!!! :biggrin:

Your leo needs an immediate appointment with an experienced reptile vet. With all ocular problems seeing a vet ASAP is paramount! Home treatment is contraindicated!


How have you been...

Great to hear from you and your crew! It has been awhile. How large can beardies grow?
