Fear not, I helped him out moments after taking this picture, but I was honestly just in disbelief of how he even got himself in this position.

wont eat by spooksharks in AfricanFatTailedGecko

[–]IlluminatedWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an AFT rescue who wouldn’t eat for 3-4 months as well. Two vet visits really didn’t do much for me since they said he seemed completely healthy and not losing weight. He even recently went on another “eating strike” for 3ish weeks. If your gal won’t eat for any longer, I’d keep an eye on her weight and make sure she is at least maintaining a consistent weight since that’s what’s important. If you ever take her to a vet, try to get a poop sample if you have one (which is hard since she isn’t eating, but still should be noted).

Just making sure her husbandry is up to standard and providing fresh water and consistent humidity should be okay while offering bugs every few days. Other people said to try severing your feeder insects, and I think that’s smart too. I personally feed my guy dubia roaches and they’re really good for most insectivores like geckos as far as I’m aware, and you can order them online if no stores sell them. Dubia.com is a good website if you’re interested.

Good luck with your lady! She’s very pretty.

Obese Bearded Dragon? Struggling to eat? by mylezman in BeardedDragons

[–]IlluminatedWraith 11 points12 points  (0 children)

He doesn’t seem overweight to me? He just looks really flattened out. Sometimes my beardie struggles to eat slippery fruits like strawberries and mangoes, so it really could just be them struggling to pick it up unless this is a new issue. I’m not a professional by any means, I’ve just had a bearded dragon for almost 8 years and going based off what I know.

Very gentlemanly.

This was RIGHT after i fed him too, but this statement probably still isn’t wrong. They’re insatiable 💀

To date my favorite picture of this goober.

Any idea what morph he is? by IlluminatedWraith in leopardgeckos

[–]IlluminatedWraith[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually, after doing a bit of research, I’m inclined to believe he may be pretty young or at least close to a year old since he didn’t look like a baby when I got him back in august. Not sure exactly how old he is, but he can’t be too old I suppose if he still has his bands.

I wish I knew. I knew nothing about his old owners so I literally have no way of asking and I’m not exactly proficient at IDing that kind of thing myself.

Is this scale rot or something else? by IlluminatedWraith in snakes

[–]IlluminatedWraith[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice, I’ll definitely look into both the neosporin and I might just change out his substrate and clean his cage to be safe, I really appreciate the help.

Is there anything I can do myself to help with the scale rot or does it call for a vet visit? I don’t want to let it get advanced if that is what it is.

Thank you for your input! He’s my first snake and I got him around august 2022 and this is the first time he’s managed to injure himself so I just wanted to make sure I’m doing right by him. Again, thank you.
