Huge tokay female

[Ingo]

Yes, but if you dissect dead tokays with pronounced fat rolls, you normally find a still fine looking liver, whereas even in slightly overweight chameleons for example, livers tend to look horrible.

Just a short update. The growth in her mouth was removed from the vet and everything went well. After the 2nd negative fecal example my friend put her together with the Calico male. And she really seems to be female, because they get along very well.

Another picture. They seem to get along great. And the male isnt calling that often anymore.

Glad I found this thread.... I'd like to ask for opinions on my g. gekko's weight. His name is Louie and he used to eat 8 to 10 large ( read 3/4 inch) crickets and 1 to 2 pinkies each week. He would get the crickets wednesday and the pinkies on sunday. Recently he's taken to eating 14 to 16 3/4 in. crickets once a week. I've tried feeding him twice per week as was our agreed upon schedule, but he seems set on his new schedule. He looks healthy and hasn't lost any weight...... Any one experienced anything like this before? Just curious. Here are some pics.

A health Tokay does not need pinkies, they will only make her too fat. In my big collection, crickets or roaches are over feed once a week. Meaning they may eat their fill and a few crickets may survive for another day or two.

Generally speaking, once they are full, they may wait a couple of days before they eat again. Also, females will increase their intake in the early stages of egg production.
