My Leopard Gecko Has a Broken leg!!!!!!

[Rel]

Today he was in my hand, and jumped down a few feet. Then after he started limping, and i realized that his leg was really weak, and twisted. WHATT DOO II DOOO???

Are you sure the other limbs aren't rubbery (that would be a sign of MBD). Is this a baby or an adult? Can you post a picture? Sometimes when the gecko is limping and may have a broken leg, all you have to do is wait till it heals. If the leg is twisted, it may need to be "set" and I think you're going to have to visit a reptile vet. If you can't find a reptile vet, this may be something that a regular vet can handle since it's orthopedic.

i think it is twisted... and it does look rubbery, but i know its not mbd because she was walking fine earlier. until the drop.

yeah, that doesn't look so great. I'd get him into a vet.

Not good. Vet visit asap!

Definitely not good and needs to see a vet immediately.

how much do you think the visit will cost?

The consultation alone can be anywhere from $50-120. Prices vary with location. A radiograph usually cost around $90- $175.
