Fog Early followed by Afternoon Showers| Angels angels |
| I had a leopard gecko years ago when I first started keeping reptiles that refused to eat anything. I ended up rehoming her because I didn't know a whole lot back then and didn't want her to die. My guy now, he is a great eater but if you are tong feeding him meal worms and he misses, he will get discouraged and stop eating lol. But he gets tona of crickets to hunt so he is fine |
| BlackRose |
| The guy did say we would have to syringe feed her but I was so worried of choking or breaking her jaw when she was resisting that it was just easier to feed her things she wanted to eat and she loved waxworms |
| BlackRose |
| Most definitely, although it was the safest thing for her from the outcome of it all. She wasn’t the best at eating. She went through a really weird thing of where we had to kill the crickets in front of her? For her to eat them. Then she came out of that and was eating on her own so we the guy recommended substrate and we got coco fibre blocks (I could be wrong on the name) but it was a block you soak in warm water |
| Angels angels |
| Yeah the only animals I keep on paper towel or paper are tiny baby geckos, because they are dumb lol |
| Hellion Ridge |
| I wouldn't recommend using anything that isn't substrate to be honest. Things like paper towel and newspaper aren't very enriching or comfortable |
| BlackRose |
| Hm… that does sound strange. I’d love another leopard gecko but at the time I always felt like I was replacing her and could never bring myself to get another one. I do believe the only way I’d get another is if I had to take one in. |
| Angels angels |
| We have one at the pet store I work at that I would totally take if I had the room. We can't sell him because for some reason his legs started growing funny and he walks on the back of his wrists on the front feet. We don't understand why because he has had proper care and all the other ones we have are perfectly healthy |
| BlackRose |
| She ate quiet a bit and she couldn’t get it fully up again unfortunately. I don’t understand why he even told us to put substrate in she was fine on the newspaper |
| BlackRose |
| But I have always wanted to get another one that I feel ready to but I also wouldn’t get one unless I’ve seen one being rehomed or in poor condition - I’d take it in until I can either get it to someone who will properly care for it or keep it but I don’t have the experience to keep a poorly treated reptile as I’m aware there’s some issues that are life long for a reptile if they aren’t treated properly etc |
| Angels angels |
| I mean if they eat a small amount of substrate it isn't an issue. They will just poop it out like they would in the wild. Unless it is like a big piece of bark or a large amount of ir |

| why do the sexed svens only show up in the store when I'm not on? 💀💀 |
| BlackRose |
| No no she passed unfortunately, se was my first gecko. She ended up eating the substrate the guy told us to put in and when she did that and it went wrong because she ate it he literally said “she wont die so stop panicking” and she ended up passing. He was no help and ngl very rude about it all. |
| Angels angels |
| I don't know who you got her from but they sound sketchy xD |
| BlackRose |
| When he brought her down I did think she looked a bit big, if not full sized. We were told she was a baby that’s why she was more expensive etc |
