    Eye problem

    The goop was sitting right in the middle of his eye today so I got a photo of it He's gonna see the vet tomorrow so hopefully they'll be able to flush it out. I feel really bad for the little guy!

    Eye problem

    I finally found a photo that looks exactly like what he's got! The source was suggesting it was a foreign object or shed (like I thought) so hopefully a vet will be able to flush it out

    Culling dubia roaches

    I suspect my dubia roach colony of being infested with pinworms due to one of my geckos unfortunately passing away at the start of the year from not being diagnosed early enough (because the vet messed up the fecal results...) and at least one showing the exact same symptoms now, with the...

    Eye problem

    Hi guys, a few weeks ago I noticed a white glob in Cannoli's eye. He's about 10 months old and eats well (though a little picky). It looked like it was just something he'd gotten in there so I tried flushing it to no avail. I took him to the vet, who couldn't see the glob but prescribed...

    Smaller naturalistic tank

    I've been wanting to set up a bioactive/naturalistic tank for one of my leopard geckos (Donut)! The thing is, his current tank is made of wood, and it's not deep enough for a proper drainage layer. I've been thinking about getting him a glass tank instead and I just now saw that I can get one of...

    Silicone smell

    So I've been (trying) to make a custom vivarium background for my gargoyle and pretty much everything that could've gone wrong, did go wrong. However, it's all set up now and I'm in the "meehhh... ok..."-phase. I have a couple of concerns though... It's been a week since I siliconed over the...

    Dropped tail video

    I recently got a crested gecko and he was so scared upon arrival that he dropped his tail the second I opened the tub to let him into his tank! The tail flopped around for a good 5 minutes and I filmed it a little, thought I'd share

    Double sick leo

    Hi guys! I haven't been on for a long time because I've been pretty busy... I don't know if anyone remembers, but earlier this year I had trouble with my little girl Eclair. She didn't want to eat and things I tried included baths, electrolyte supplements, sunlight, temperature adjusting...

    What should I hook my females up with?

    I'm still trying to understand leopard gecko genetics so I'm gonna turn here for help. The two geckos I purchased this year have turned out female, so I'm not entirely sure what kind of male I should get for breeding next year. The females are a Sunglow and a Tangerine Tremper Albino. I've been...

    New babs!

    We recently (2 weeks ago) got two new younglings! They're in large plastic tubs in a different room from all other reptiles for quarantine :3 This is Flan! He's probably a male (temp sexed) but we're not seeing any signs of it so far... He's the most gorgeous little guy. He's quite timid but...

    Eating troubleshooting

    I'd like for someone to help me troubleshoot Eclair's eating issues - I know that I can sometimes go blind about things that have been going on for a long time. She's obviously too small for her age but she's not underweight. I altered the sick-sheet for this. I'm currently experimenting with...

    Transport to the vet

    I'm taking Eclair to the vet to get her checked properly since she's not eating and losing weight (and Donut will come with just for a check-up). My question is: how should I transport them to the vet? I don't have a car so I'll have to take the bus. Should I put them in small tubs, then in a...

    Small dark spot

    After her last shed (a couple of days ago), a small dark brown spot has appeared on Eclair's elbow (she's a blizzard so she's otherwise white/yellow). It hasn't changed colour or size since we first noticed it. Any opinions on whether it's just pigment change with growth or something we should...

    Gecko Business

    When I find an apartment and we settle in, I'd like to start breeding leos on a small scale. There aren't that many of them in Scotland and I want to create a business that focuses on healthy, happy geckos rather than just pumping them out for money and providing proper information about keeping...

    Impaction from sand - video

    I wanted to share a video I found, as it is a good example of impaction from sand without being graphic. It is however quite upsetting and obviously this gecko has more problems than just impaction. Video here I find it problematic that a lot of people think it's perfectly fine to start being...

    Tanks!

    I just got some new backgrounds and plants in, so I thought I'd share photos of the setups HERE! The leos tanks are VivExotic Repti-Stax Compact Vivarium Medium (mussel). They are 86cm long, 37.5cm deep and 42cm tall (34" x 15" x 16.5"). The UTHs cover half of the tank. Since the tanks are...

    Exo Terra Hanging Products

    I thought I'd just warn people about these products, because they've been a serious issue for me; the Exo Terra products that come with a "clip system". I'll list what products I have with this and what the problems have been. Canopy Combo Dish - straight up fell down. Customer service reply...
