    Maggots and Red Mealworms

    Yes maggots. Are they safe to feed to a Leo? No I'm not picking them out of dead animals, nor were they ever fed dead animals. Once hatched out of the egg they are refrigerated to keep them dormant. They have these at my bait shop, where I get all my feeders. My vet recommended them for my...

    Large mass on Leo's side - Gecko with sunken in skull

    My new rescue girl, Freckles, has this red bump that pops out of her side. It's squishy, not firm, and will go into her body when touched. It sort of reminds me of a hernia with the way it protrudes and retreats, but hernias are usually more firm. It sort of feels like their liquid in it. She's...

    Mazuri Diet for Leopard Geckos?

    I'm curious what your guys' opinion on the Mazuri Bearded Dragon Diet for leopard geckos. It says it can be for geckos, and it is a complete diet but shouldn't completely replace feeder insects. I'm trying literally everything to get my gecko to eat. He just hates everything I offer, and the...

    new rescue - stuck eyelids, bleeding, no toes

    I just picked up this baby at a beach shop. She is missing the first joint on ALL toes thus making her have absolutely no toenails. Her entire back is cracked and bleeding. The skin on her head is so tight she cannot close her top eyelids (sorry for the blurry photo of her eyes) she seems in...

    Gecko hasn't eaten in 3 Months

    Thank you for getting back to me. His deformity does not affect his health whatsoever. He was born with a smaller eye, I knew about this ahead of time that's why I chose him. But he can see out of that very tiny eye, so nothing with his vision will affect. When I said the temperature...

    Gecko hasn't eaten in 3 Months

    Hello, I've posted on here before, some of you might remember. But my Leo still refuses to eat. I got him on March 17, and he has not eaten anything other than his skin. He has shed 3 times, each time eating skin, but other than that, no food! I've literally tried everything. Hand feeding...

    Super smart Leo??

    I wasn't sure which section to post this in. But I thought I would share this. I have had my gecko's enclosure set up this way ever since I got him. But recently I have rearranged his two hides. I moved the bark one on the warm, and his favorite on the cool. In the morning, I had found out...

    Photos of my Special Boy

    I thought I would share a few photos of my boy Meips. He was born with an eye deformity, and has to be the most difficult little thing. This is my first leo in a very long time. He is as sweet as can be, but also a little special needs. I believe he has some neurological problems as well as a...

    Update on two deformed leos

    I figured I would start a new thread. I want to thank those of you who have helped me with my two Leos. Unfortunately, the female passed away a couple days ago. I'm not sure what caused it, I hound her curled up in a ball in her hide, it looked like she went when she was asleep. When I purchased...

    Two Deformed geckos - are they healthy?

    Hello, I had recently got these two geckos from GeckoBoa, and I am a little concerned about them. The first, was born with a small eye. Eyelids are able to open and close just fine. I am not too sure if he can see though. He does have an eye in there, but it is all black unlike the other. It...
