Something very traumatic happened to 1 of my geckos. She is caged with 1 other female and I have never seen any agression etc from either ,as a matter of fact they are both very shy compared to my others. She was laying on the ground and looked scared and sick also her tail was dropped and she couldnt move. Today she looks like she s feeling better. I have her alone now but i m afraid to put anyone back in with her. Any ideas? I cant find the tail!
dropped tail!

The tail was probably eaten. Cage mate aggression can happen w/ any species. Not everyone gets along all the time...just like with people. I'd keep her alone and on paper towel at least for the time being until the tail heals up. Then it'll be up to you to decide if you want to try putting them back together or not. It could happen again, or they might be completely fine.
