Hi, my crested gecko is one year old and about 3 weeks acting really weird, find out couple days ago that is losing a lot of skin and seems really skinny and feels very cold, all the time just on the bottom and his tail is not straight anymore, i feed him regularly and keeping water in there also spraying water inside daily ...please help I don't know what to do.

it sounds like he needs to see a vet.

what are you feeding him? can you post a picture of the enclosure, and also the gecko? as much detail as you can give is helpful. what is the temperature where his cage is? how long have you had him?

I feed him with crickets and also CGD as well, I have a lights for day and red light for night ...any help please? I'll try anything

oh no. I would take him to a vet as soon as you possibly can; he needs professional help to survive.

he has some pretty severe MBD. he also looks both dehydrated and under weight. I am sorry.

Yes please take him to a vet immediately, he looks underweight and dehydrated. The vet can do much more than you'll be able to on your own. Good luck-!

He isn´t just underweight, he is emaciated! He also looks severely dehydrated, and I believe that he probably has MBD. Bring him to the vet ASAP!
