    My 'rescue' gecko, Grace... (Warning, pictures that may be disturbing)

    Good luck with her rehab. I would give her slightly higher temps than usual and keep a good count on her mealies to make sure she is eating. Slow and steady wins the race when emaciated animals are concerned

    Sorry folks, insane 3 day weekend of puppy mill seizures, foster dog and drs visits. Maia, this perfectly captures Faraz and his way of thinking so it had to win!

    I feel like a horrible gecko owner

    You are an excellent gecko mommy. I've been keeping up with that thread, and you have been doing everything in your ability to get Pepper the help she needs. I wish more folks would be as caring and dedicated to their gecko

    Should geckos with deformities be culled?

    I think it depends on who the other party is. There are folks like me who work in the rescue world, who would never consider breeding any animal in my care. A deformed gecko who was given to me (deformed geckos should not be sold IMHO) would get high quality vet care, a suitable set up and would...

    Any thoughts

    I have a rescued corn that I love to death. She's an awesome snake, tagged me once and I hardly noticed it. Huge personality

    Heal first, or you will end up like me with permanant knee and ankle damage.... I learned the hard way.

    Rescued another one.

    He's really looking much better!

    Do I dare?

    Rescues are wonderfully rewarding, but I always insist on either free or very low fee with a lot of supplies. Reason being that I normally drop at least $40 immediately at the vet

    ATTENTION!!! Leopard Gecko Symposium...

    I think that it may be something to consider to have speakers not only from the breeder side of things, but also for those who are serious pet owners. I have no plans to breed my geckos, but would love to learn more about how to give them the best life I can through this symposium

    Possible hemipenal prolapse

    Well, I've said it once I'll say it a thousand times... I LOVE my vets! I have my pre-op appointment today so there were no open appointments where I could get Yasser in, so they squeezed me in with Dr Lusk this morning. He removed the necrotic tip, popped it back in and gave him a stitch to...

    Possible hemipenal prolapse

    Well darn it. Yasser my year old patternless leo went and prolapsed tonight about an hour ago. I have given him a 30 minute warm soak and moved him from his 20L into a 10g on damp paper towels as substrate. Tomorrow I'm going to call my vet and see if they will let me defer payment till...

    Hey folks I'm picking up my first corn tomorrow. It's being given to me by a friend of a friend who says it is over 10 years old. it's at least a 4-5 hour trip. How best to carry it? It's coming with a 10g. Would taking all furniture out of the tank and placing it on the floor be...
