How old is my baby gecko?

[Rajah]

Thanks for the advice, Melanie. I'm glad to hear that Lydia's behavior is normal. I'm a little concerned about her new green ish poop and her somewhat lethargic attitude, but I think she might be beginning to shed, so that could have a lot to do with it, I suppose. I'll try the meal worms. I think I might try putting them in a more shallow dish. The one I have is about an inch or so deep. It's a little ceramic one I bought from Petco (I also have water and Leopard Gecko Calcium in two others). I hope she knows how to use them... She hasn't showed much interest. If things haven't improved by Monday or so, I'll let a vet take it from there.

Oh, hey, just a quick update-- I finally decided on a name: Bambi. What do you think? Works for a male or a female, and it's cute. I think it's fitting, as they just look so darn doe-eyed and cute.

so how's Bambi doing today? and it is a cute name.

She's doing pretty well, thanks, aside from her still not eating. Actually, she just shed her skin and ate that, but she's still not interested in crickets or worms. I'm taking her to Petco at 9 am this morning. I'm a little concerned about something else, as well. I noticed that Bambi's belly is a little blue, and there's a very pronounced blue dot in the center. I heard that this might be impaction (though I haven't really read up on it much), but, as I was letting her crawl around on me, she relieved herself all down my back. Yuck. At least it was healthy looking poop, finally! I guess I'll find out tomorrow if there's anything the matter with her. I'm no expert, and, as helpful as this forum is, it'll be good to finally have someone take a look at her. Thanks for checking up on my baby
