Leopard geckos anyone?

anyone here keep leopard or albino leopard geckos? mine seems to have shedding problems, and wont eat.... i dont know what to do and its never happened before.

 

? Well the same way we use garlic to help feed our fish and keep their immune system healthy, why dont u use something to keep it healthy as well? maybe try soaking food in something

 

I have 3. All adult. Is he eating the shedding? If he is, that is good. It will give him calcium and other elements. When mine was a baby i hand feed it crickets so it wouldn't have to run all over the cage. See if you can hand feed him a few. You soak the crickets in calcium powder or liquid too, if he needs it for getting thin.

 

now here we are something i know about! its lizards! first off do you have a humid hide for the guy it will help him shed giving him a moist place to hide. what the temp of your tank do you have a under tank heater or equivalent? you could try some wax worms its like candy for lizards.

 

or pinkys if he is mature enough. That is like a 5 pound HERSHEYS to him! haha I spoil my animals

 

the whole room, let alone the tank is humid LOL, i've been hand feeding him since i first got him. hes not eating anything, i literally have to force him to eat crickets like 1 or 2 a day if im lucky, i feed the crickets fruit, water and orange cubes (special cricket food). when he actually ate, he would eat shedding. he hasnt been in a while. he has an under terrarium heater. wichi is directly under his favorite hide. he stays there ALL day i even had to move his water dish closer so he wouldnt tire himself out. im afraid he's kinda at the point if you know what i mean :/ hes also has a very minute growth looking thing by his mouth.

hes about 6-7 inches, pretty average length ive heard

 

Did you check for mites?

Cool lizards, here in AZ we have them by the hundreds at night.

 

Is he on bark or sand? Mine, when he got older, started eating too much sand when he got his crickets and it impacted his intestines causing him to have shedding issues and obviously not allowing him to eat. 1 xray, medications, and $500 later, he was back to normal

 

yeah i love them but part of his mouth looks like its getting infected almost.

 

he is on sand, but he is hand fed to avoid that problem.
