1. What substrate are you using?
She is an adopted gecko and she was housed on sand without a calcium dish. Now she is on cage carpet
2. What sized enclosure do you have your leo in?
10 gallon right now but haven't moved her in with my other geckos yet, and could possibly she could get her own 20 in a few days when I pick it up
3. What are your warm side temperatures?
4. How are the temperatures measured?
I am using a glass thermometer since I don't have a digital
5. What are you using as your heat source?
Red light by exo terra, 60 watts
6. Do you have any method of regulating the temperatures?
It's a small tank but the light is the farthest to the left to allow a small heat gradient
7. How many hides do you have for your leo? What are they?
two hides, a wood half log and a terra cotta hide
8. What food have you offered?
Crickets, superworms, and mealworms
9. How often do you offer food?
Almost 2-3 times a day for the past few days, and nightly for the weeks before that
10. Are you supplementing the food? If so, with what and how often?
She is getting a leopard gecko supplement dusted on all of her food
11. How old is your leo?
She is believed to be four years old
12. How long have you had your leo?
About a month
13. Give a little detail about the behaviour of the Leo also:
She is constantly basking in the heat but does go to the cool side, she has her eyes closed a lot but that could be from my room light
I am relatively well experienced with reptiles but I have never seen this in a gecko before. She has eaten before but it has been a while. I am posting a few pics of her but since that she has layed her first clutch with me and lost more weight. Also this picture doesn't show how skinny she is. Also I have tried to mist her and put warm water (luke warm) on her nose so that she licks it off to make sure it's not dehydration.
But while I'm asking for help I'm also going to ask about skin that's maintained on the gecko, she has lost a few toes with her previous owner and she has a little bit of shed buildup with me. I was wondering what I could do about this?
