Hi, it's been awhile since I've been on this forum. I think there's something seriously wrong with one of my leos, Toothless... He hasn't been eating for a few weeks at least. I didn't think it was too big of a deal until his tail became noticeably skinnier. I checked his belly and there's a...

I know many of you recommend tile and I was set on getting it, but now I'm wondering if I should get Eco earth instead. Here's why: 1. I'd get the dry bag, so humidity wouldn't be an issue. 2. It would be more comfortable (leopard geckos seem to care about comfort, since they sometimes sleep...

So, my leopard gecko sunset usually walks right onto my hand when I put it in. The past few times I've tried, all she's done is lick me. She still acts completely normal otherwise. I recently took out a couple of things that didn't need to be in her tank that she never uses. One I took out...

I know many of you recommend the jump start thermostat for seed germination, but it would be expensive to ship it to where I live and there aren't any in my pet stores, so I got a zoo med thermostat for a good price on kijiji. I've heard on YouTube that it isn't the best thermostat. I asked why...

My gecko toothless hasn't been eating for three feedings. He hasn't shed to recently, his heat is on, there haven't been any changes to his environment recently, and he isn't impacted. I'm thinking it could be parasites (I try to get any leftover crickets out soon after feeding and crickets...

So, I made a hide for sunset that she can climb on, in, and under. What do you think of it? I'm going to spoil her with a larger tank and more hides. I hope that it won't cause her to wander away from her heat and water source, as she is still around a year old. I just fed her first hornworm to...

If you take your leos out, what do you do with them? Since Sunset is very curious, I let her come onto my hand sometimes then put my hand on the ground to let her explore. She hardly walks around, if at all. Yet when I let her sleep on me, she can't sit still. Really, Sunset?

Sorry if this us posted in the wrong place. So, I want to get either a crested gecko or yet another leopard gecko. My mom is concerned about what I will do with my reptiles (corn snake and two leopard geckos) when I go to university in a few years, as I will have to move away. I won't...

So, a couple of the hides in one of my gecko's tanks are large enough that I am concerned that Sunset will fall off of them. I'd prefer not to change the hides, as I recently made a theme for them and I don't know of any other hides that fit this theme. I also think that tile is the best...

Here's a thread where you can share funny feeding stories! Once, I think my leo Sunset might have actually bit her own tail (don't worry, no wounds) when hunting because it moved! Not entirely funny because she might have wounded it or made it fall off. She also sometimes wiggles the tip of her...

I've found some pretty funky hides in my time caring for reptiles. Here's a thread where you can share some pictures of cool hides you've found! Here's a couple I think are pretty cool. The one on the left is meant to show you the occupant, but I don't put it up against the glass, as the reptile...

Ok I know I already introduced her, but I didn't have a picture and have more to say. Here is Sunset! For some reason, every time she sheds, all of her body except her head turns white then sheds, then her head. Her head always sheds late. It is so sweet when she looks directly at me when I am...

It started the Friday before last Friday; my gecko would only eat one cricket when he usually eats eight. The next two feedings, he ate all of the crickets, but wasn't enthusiastic. The feeding after that, he ate no crickets, then ate three crickets, then ate one. I don't know why he is doing this.

hi my leopard gecko sunset has stuck shed on her entire head and i know i could get it off with a q tip or put her in luke warm water, but i am wondering how long i should wait to do this? i put her in a freshly misted moist hide, but she didnt stay. the stuck shed is causing her not to eat. I...

Got a new leo named Sunset! :yahoo: It was sort of rescuing her because before, she was on lots of sand, had only a lamp, and only one hide.:sad: I will be checking for impaction soon. She is a beautiful lavender morph and 8 months to a year old. I will eventually post a picture.

What should the temperature be on the warm side day and night?

Can I make a normal cat collar I have a breakaway collar?

My gecko has been passing very large urates for awhile. Should I worry? What is the cause? P.s. I know this isn't an egg because my gecko is male.

My gecko's poop is runny. i know this could mean parasites, but there arent any of the other symptoms. I think it is is consistent; i know if it isnt consistent, it isnt a problem. Should I worry?

If you handle your leopard gecko, what do you do with it? I know most of the answers will probably be, I let it fall asleep or explore, but oh well.
