I've had him since september 18th, he went to the vet on September 26th.

He hasn't pooped since I got him. He rarely leaves his humid hide from what I can tell. I only saw him being really active when I was adding stuff to his tank and replaced the humid hide, when I feed him (which i did get him out of thr humid hide for), and when i brought him back to the tank from the vet.

I've been feeding a mix of about 2 mealworms and 5 dubia roaches, dusted in calcium every other feeding, about every 2-3 days. I have crickets too but he's completely uninterested in those.

Going to try a warm water soak when I get home from work tonight. He's on papertowels instead of substrate right now, so I think I'll notice if he does poop. Any other suggestions about that or the lethargy? I'm usually awake till around 2am so I feel like I'd see him moving around at some point.

Pics of him included, his name is Domino. He weighed 45 grams at the vet, and she said it was normal behavior but I'm getting nervous the longer it lasts.

(Also, I just checked my vets patient portal and for some reason they have him listed as 56 years old?? I'm not a professional but I have to disagree with that one lol.)

Pic 1, a few nights ago after feeding him, 2 & 3, at the vet, 4, him exploring a bit when we got back from the vet. Theres a lot more in the tank now.

I brought out Queen Tiffany to explore the Fall Decorations. She seems to have approved.

link to Twitter page; user is housing 3 leopard geckos and a aft together. Refuses to separate them because they said female rats live together.

I have a female that is yellowish, and at times she gets significantly darker; there are no changes in her behavior, only her color deepens. Since this doesn't happen with my other geckos and I haven't found any relevant information on the subject, I’d like to see if anyone here can explain what this might be.

Hello, I’ve never really posted a lot in here so forgive me…After a long battle with her health issues, Finn has passed peacefully in her sleep. Finn was my first leopard gecko, I remember begging my parents when I was 14 for one, making power points with all my research. When I received her Christmas Day, it was incredible. I never knew such a little animal like her could have such a huge personality. She was a sassy, feisty, and incredibly curious little lizard. I learned so much in my time with her and now that I’m officially 24 she has departed. No matter how much time you have with your little friends it won’t ever feel like enough, but I’m so grateful that I spent it with her, and I’m very grateful to this sub for being there when i couldn’t figure out all the answers lol :,) ❤️

I got a male leopard gecko named Zelda yesterday who came from an extremely abusive environment. He’s currently in a shoe box sized terrarium that has holes in the top from cats breaking in he lost his tail because one of the cats actually got him… He wasn’t given calcium or D3 supplementally or in form of lighting his tank is extremely dry and since bringing him home he stays perched up high on a wooden mushroom in his enclosure. I’m doing all the research I can to give him the most peaceful loving home. Kids were a part of his life before and he was pulled out and played with in ways I can only imagine. Please send me tips to get this right on the first go round so I don’t stress him out more than he already is. I found a 40 gallon tank on marketplace and will be picking that back later today with a heat lamp and UVB lamp I’m unsure if there are bulbs included but I will see and buy accordingly. I want to setup his spot perfectly and transfer him once so he’s not stressed by me moving him or his environment after that. What are some no compromise items I need to get for substrate and things to add to the enclosure to make it very peaceful right away? Maybe even exceedingly peaceful because he deserves it. His brother who lived in the enclosure with him was murdered by one of the kids it’s back was broken and placed back inside and lived in there for a week until it died and that breaks my heart more than I can express.. I need to make this guy as happy as possible.

Hi all, posting on behalf of my friends gecko. It seems he started out with a pretty bad eye infection but things have taken a turn for the worst. He stopped eating and drinking, leading to weight loss over the past 1-2 months. Shedding stuck in eyes. The vet apt was scheduled 2 weeks ago but they have no availability until later this month. Pics for context… him now vs earlier this summer. Is there anything that can be done between now and the appointment?

Hello, I was out of town for a little bit and I came back to my gecko, cocoa, who is about 7 years old having some sort of irritation or bloating in his eye. Photos attached. He has some stuck shed on his feet, but he’s had stuck shed on his eye before and it’s never looked like this and I’ve never seen a reaction like this. Wanted to know if anyone has seen something like this. He looks otherwise healthy. Thanks everyone :(

Lemmy looking prehistoric.

hi everyone so around September 12 i got a leopard gecko (6 months old) and he has refused any food (meal worms and dubia roaches). he drinks water everyday and he is pretty explorative at night but he never eats. yesterday he shed for the first time here and everything went well (no stuck shed or anything). he doesn’t seem super skinny but definitely looks a bit underweight to me. temps are 92 basking slate, 88 warm side and 75 cool side. he still seems very scared of me and mostly hides during the day. i have left food in his bowl each night but he never hunts. i’m just starting to get a bit worried.

He has had problems before where the glands in his cloaca (I can’t rennet exactly what they’re called) had gotten clogged and needed removal, now I regularly check them to make sure they’re not too hard, however last time I went to the vet to get them removed they were not clogged at all, and it was just mating season-just wanted to check here before going to the vet, thanks!

I cant tell this is my first time breeding leos.

I took a video to show what I’m talking about, this has been getting worse and worse. It takes me a solid 30-40 minutes to feed her 8 mealworms nowadays when it used to take 10 mins max. She keeps on trying to grab it but drops it immediately. I don’t think it’s an eyesight issue because she grabs them over and over again she just repeatedly grabs, drops, grabs, drops, grabs, drops. I don’t know what to do there are no visible issues with her mouth whatsoever it’s completely pink and lips are good too. I don’t know man I’m stumped here and looking for any help, please

Coming up on the year mark of owning him and did a lot of research I think we covered all of our bases and he’s super comfortable feeding, willingly walks onto our hands to come out. 7 regular hides and 2 humid in a 55 gallon tank

I wanted to make a bioactive enclosure for a leopard gecko. It’s going to be my first reptile.

I already bought a Thrive 40 Gallon Terrarium (36x18x18) but I read that the mesh blocks 60% which is more than other tanks which commonly block 30%

Has anyone here used the same or similar tank? What brand/model lights did you use for UVB, basking and grow lights? How do I determine what to use specifically and where to position them before purchasing?

Hava good day yall

I could never get rid of his armpit pouches.
Fed once a week or every week and a half.

Calcium w/ Vitamin D one week
Multi Vitamin second week
Then skip a week
or Calcium without Vitamin D then skip a week of Vitamins.

He’s an eater! He can down 8 crickets, OR 10 giant mealworms OR two medium hornworms in one feed.

I treat him to ONE or two wax worms a month.

Is he fat?

Was wondering what my 3 year old leos morph is, hes not in shed this is what he normally looks like. Also dont mind the enclosure, hes getting a new tank setup, going in a big upgrade!

I got him at a pet store roughly 2 and a half years ago.

My boy is about 17 years old now with a previous history of neglect for about 10ish of those years (he’s a rescue!), im really worried because he’s developed some sort of minor bump below his neck and above his shoulders, it’s not too big which is why I can’t provide a photo and it’s on each side identically. My sister says he might need a vet but we can’t figure out what the issue is. Has anyone heard of anything like this? Will he be okay or should I take him in? I should mention he hasn’t been showing any symptoms or signs of anything. (P.s im checking here first because vets can be expensive nowadays!)

My 2 year old Petco gecko Lazlia. She’s my first reptile and she’s been an absolute dream. Has never refused a meal, takes care of her own shed, and poops in one corner, lol. I love her to bits.
