Pictus broken leg!

[haley7204]

My female pictus(approx. 1.5 years old) has a major broken leg problem. Her thigh bone is leterally sticking out at the joint part. Her leg is upside down. I think she mightve had another bone actually fall out. I don't know what to do with her. She is in a lot of pain. She was also my first gecko, and she is the gecko who first laid eggs, who's babies were my first, and who inspired me to become a herpetologist in the future. What do I do?

She has a constant supply of calcium, but she is constantly laying eggs

I think this one might be beyond hobbyist advice, you should take her to the vet.

There is no other option, you have to get her proper treatment from a vet. This is not a do-it-yourself situation.

So sorry to hear about your friend, how did it happen on a side note?(so i can try an avoid that one).... Vets the only way to go..If it was in nature the leg would slow her down making her bait for a predator. Let us know how it works out please...thanks, hope all is well

Had to put her down that day. No way to save the leg and not worth the money and pain and uncomfort and possible fail of amputation. My male and her got into a major fight. He seems upset that his partner is gone so he has been staying out of his hides almost all day. I found a bite mark on him. The bones in her front right arm were also broken.
