    Does my Leopard gecko have a Respiratory infection!?

    My gecko, calypso, has had stuck shit on her head for three days, today’s the third day. Yesterday I put Mas in a hide and wet it a little bit to help with the humidity and to take it off (humidity is 60 rn). But this morning, I went in to just rub her chin and she made a little squeaking sound...

    Handling Leopard gecko?

    How do I pick up my skittish Leo? She automatically crawls on me but I wanna start picking her up. Any tips besides the scoop technique (bc I know HOW to pick them up just not how to be confident and how to pick up one that’s not used to it) Thanks :/

    Handling my Gecko after she only is used to crawling on

    I’ve had Calypso for almost a year now but I haven’t picked her up/scooped (except once when she was wall surfing and her belly was exposed) since I first got her but then I stopped. So does anyone think she’d be fine with it since she willingly climbs up on me and that past experience makes it...

    What does a seizure in a Leopard gecko look like? What are the causes?

    I’ve tried looking on YouTube and even just searching it up and I don’t have any information (other than what it could look Ike) on what some signs are and why it happens. The reason I’m asking is because today for the first time my leopard gecko, Calypso had almost done a 360 with the...

    When should Heat Mat be on for LeopardGeckos?

    I just installed a heat mat for my leopard gecko today. But im wondering when it should be on since we dont want it on 24/7. Would it be better on in the night or the day.

    Juvenile Leopard Gecko barley eats

    My gecko, Calypso, barley eats anymore. Yesterday she only ate two out of the four mealworms I grieve her. And today she only ate one. I heard some geckos go off feed randomly but I’m pretty sure those are adults and not juveniles. And some more backround, two days ago she accidentally got on...
