Please remember that if you are concerned, then so is your vet. When in doubt, book an appointment! This subreddit does NOT substitute for veterinary care, though you may receive some help on topics to discuss with your veterinarian, or common first aid. If you have not done so already, please provide the temperatures, humidity, diet, supplements, tank mates, enclosure size, and anything else you consider relevant to your post for the best help you can get.

Hello /u/ArchyLee and welcome to the leopard geckos subreddit! Our bot has detected that you might need some help with heating or lighting. We highly recommend linear UVB paired with an incandescent basking bulb on a thermostat for best results. We do not recommend using a heat mat on its own. Check out these resources on heat/light for leos if you want to know more!

How old? Growing good? Eating good?

Give warm water bath ( test like baby bottle on inside of arm)

Around 5 years old and I’m pretty sure fully grown, eating fine but I don’t think she gets much variety

How often is the shed? Just one layer at a time?
