He lost a gram, so he's now 24g. Good news though, almost all of the infection is gone and he seems to be calming down. He sat on my leg while I mixed his food.
Keep up the good work, Liz. Finn really appreciates you (too).
probably the poo. i'm glad he is doing good. the first gecko I've held jumped out of my hand 4 feet to the cement. and it was just a few months old! but it lived:roll:
We had a hard time getting him to eat tonight. It's so frustrating![]()
It's quite possible that his tummy is full.
His mouth infection looks like it's all gone. He also flew out of my hands again and landed on the floor. I swear this gecko will be the death of me.
:cheer: about his mouth infection! How's his jaw profile?
Perhaps if you handle Finn not too far above the floor (carpet better) his landing will be easier.
The quality is bad, but I wanted to share this with you guys:

That's right, he's laying calmly on my chest.
Now you can focus on plumping him up. Good wishes getting Finn back to eating on his own very soon.
He's not done with his antibiotics yet, so hopefully it'll go away before he's done with it. He's got three more days after he gets today's dose.:-(
What does it look like?
Please ask your vet what to do now. OK?
Okay, he let me open his mouth and there's only a tiny bit left! I do have a question. There's a big, dark spot on the roof of his mouth. It looks like it's where his eyes are. Is that normal?
I don't know. :-(
Has your vet noticed that big dark spot?
Please ask your vet. That is best for Finn's good health. ;-)
