Hey everyone! My gecko Zeus is turning 8 years old. He had a Hemipenes prolapse awhile back and the vet removed them. Four years later, Zeus has another prolapse! It looks like a hemipenis but how can that be when they were removed? Perhaps it’s rectal? It just came out yesterday but already...

Hey everyone, it has been awhile! This website helped me so much when Zeus, my leopard gecko, as ill. I was thinking of this site today and all the wonderful people on it who helped me so much! Just wanted to give an update that Zeus is alive and well. He had issues with his hemipenes always...

hello my gecko friends! I'm back again for some advice. Zeus was keeping his eye closed a lot more than usual and it made me worry, but when I made noise he would open and it looked fine. Now it's a little rounder, black underneath and he keeps it closed all the time unless I pick him up for...

So my vet took out my geckos hemipenes and put them in a container for me to keep haha so weird! But she's the nicest vet ever and thought you guys would get a crack out of it.

Hey everybody! Just wanted to let y'all know that I took Zeus to the vet today and she believes it is a good idea to remove his hemipenes... second time they've popped out and they are now looking quite necrotic. Anyways, she said that other than his poor willy problems he is the healthiest...

Hello everyone! Im back for more advise yippee! Okay so I am absolutely totally confused. My leopard gecko who is a male had a hemipene prolapse a year ago. Almost a year to the date, there is something sticking out of him again but looks completely different! Instead of being a light...

So I've been really busy with university and I admit my gecko has not been getting the attention he deserves. He's healthy, fat and poops just fine but I over supplemented him so he now has a calcium sac on his armpit and had a prolapse. I think it prolapsed because we had to move again where...

So my gecko has what appears to be those calcium sacs under one armpit. He never had a lump under his armpit before but I moved to a different city and I had to change his feeding schedule from once every other day to him missing four days of feeding since I was out of town and my roommate...

Hey everyone!! :) Long time no talk! Thanks for all the help when Zeus had his prolapse. Thanks to all the awesome information he is completely better. He has a bit of scar tissue by his buldges but I think it's okay, since everything else about him is normal. His appetite is crazy, though. I...

Hey everyone :) long time no talk. Zeus has been really good since his surgery but some things have been different since I've had him. The day after I took him to the vet for a check up, (which took forever in the cold waiting room..a good hour) I had to take him back to my home town. So for 3...

Okay so I took Zeus into the vet right away in the morning and she did a surgery on him. She said she put his thing back in the anal slit and did stitches or "suture" that I have to go back in 10 days for her to remove. After surgery he actually was lively. He had been on anesthetic so he...

Okay I'm pretty sure Zeus has a prolapsed hemipenes as there is something sticking right out of that area and it looks similar to all those pictures. HOW DID THIS HAPPEN!? What can I do to prevent it!? Is he going to be okay? I don't know how long he has had it but I'm so scared! I have him...

Oh I have a lot!!! Haha Here are my two favourite ones! At Machu Picchu then of my grade 5 class!!

Okay, you know how leopard geckos sometimes try and climb the walls of their cage? They try and try and then end up just falling over to the side. Why do they do that??

Has anyone every seen this before in their geckos? Is this normal? First time for mine I've seen this. I gutloaded the mealworms spinach leaves and carrots. I left them for over 24 hours though, approx two days I let them gutload (since I forgot) Could that be the problem? I've always done...
