    Weird shed?

    I’ve had my leopard gecko for a couple of years and he’s never had a very bad shed. I’m a newbie to reptiles but I’ve never seen shed quite like this. It’s not flakey at all compared to the rest of him. It goes from normal colored to pale with no other signs of shedding. Found him like this in...

    Leopard gecko - vomiting

    Hi guys, I'm super scared now. Little Lovey the leopard has thrown up her mealworms three times in two weeks. The first time, she had eaten 10 and was just woofing them down so we thought maybe she had eaten too fast. She's otherwise acting normal. Her next feeds were fine and then about 8 days...

    Alternatives to dubia roaches and crickets

    So I just got my leopard gecko, and for now I only have mealworms. I want to diversify my leos diet, but some of the commonly used feeders aren’t an option for me. My parents won’t allow crickets because of the noise/smell, and dubia roaches are illegal where I live. I’d like to know if there...

    Blind or Infected?

    My leopard gecko had a hard and long shed and she was just able to uncover her eyes after I was away for the weekend and unable to help her, I noticed that one eye was much lighter and looked like it had a film over it, I can't tell if it's infected or if it's already too late and she's blind.

    Help me plan the enclosure for my first Leo?

    So I got a big enclosure for free that’s 2.5x1.5x1.5 feet. The previous owner had a leopard gecko and with some research I’ve found this is a good size for a leo, and I’ve been wanting one since I was 5 so I think it’s time to start planning for one. I am slightly worried about the glass top...

    (As a side note, her enclosure setup is much nicer now. This was when I first got her and I was somehow under the impression that she only needed two hides. She now has a fabulous cave with is her favorite.)

    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. The worse of it was on his upper lip, though. I hoped that with each new shed it would become less and less apparent which was thankfully...

    Leopard gecko dropped tail

    One of my leopard geckos escaped last night (quite literally pushed through a tiny foam piece that covers a small opening in her tank - which is smaller than her body so i don’t even know how she got out), and we found her this morning with her tail dropped and a tiny cut on her side. I have 3...
