    Mouth Rot? Or Scar Tissue?

    Hi everyone, this is my leopard gecko Tango (7mo male) and when I brought him home (1mo) he was full of bad shed wounds on his head, upper lip, and nose area.

    Bite wounds?

    I just got my leopard gecko and I was wondering if this looked like a previous tank mate bite wound? Or stuck shed? I don’t think it’s shed because he had no interest in the humid hide he has but it’d be nice for a second opinion helena

    New Leopard Gecko, interesting past feeding

    I just recently got a free leopard gecko off of Craigslist. I have done some research and I think I’m pretty good for now.
