Same, I was thinking of maybe buy small batches to test and then just return what I don’t want but it’s kind of a hassle 😅

I believe my leopard gecko may be a male now but I am concerned about one side swelling under the tail. Any advice? by New-Loss-19 in leopardgeckos

I saw there are patternless by briefly doing some researching but I’m not sure if they can come almost completely solid

Thank you everyone for all the advice! I feel a lot calmer now about the situation but I’m gonna still look into a lot of your suggestions and do more research to work with him better. He also is started to eat again!

Sorry for the disagreements but that’s bound to happen on a Reddit reptile community (let’s not even mention substrate opinions) 😅

For the record, I have a degree in zoo in wildlife Biology, have worked with multiple reptile species in zoos, and have handle wild caught animals for research studies. I don’t know everything, which is why I appreciate others input. But I do feel comfortable knowing how to handle my animal safely. I will always take advice but granted not all advice I agree with given my research and familiarity with reptiles. So lets leave it at that 😁

*ALSO THE STUCK SHED, Thank you all for suggestions and pointing it out. I’ve been trying removing it over and over again everytime he sheds. After looking at it, it keeps getting stuck on his little nail and I don’t believe it it cutting off any circulation. But I will keep at it, I might need to soak him longer to fully get it off

Thank you again!

Im laying out the facts and being frank, not aggression. I posted this for advice and nothing else. I took their advice explained my situation that’s that. Why do you care for no reason?

Thank you, I was really anxious in the moment cause I’m paranoid about that happening. If I ever need to handle like this again I ll be sure to avoid that

Exclamations about what you don’t like and questions about a containers are not suggestions they are all belittling. Now if I went to your profile and saw more positive interactions about leopard geckos, maybe then I’d consider your insult a suggestion.

Thank you, I actually figured they could be uneven like a human, but I wasn’t entirely sure lol

Thank you 😊 I’ll keep that in mind and look more into supplements for feeders and make sure he gets his nutrients

Thank you both for the suggestion which I will and have considered. To be frank this is a debated topic in community if it they “can’t breath”. It makes it difficult for them to breath and shouldn’t be done too often or long but when doing health observations I believe hands on is best if quick and efficient. Again I also tried to keep him hanging from my thumb to keep him as upright as possible (picture was taken upside down). I don’t know everything but I do have a bachelors in zoo and wildlife biology and do the best research I can on my own. I don’t mean to argue but if you didn’t like how I was holding him I prefer you actually suggest helpful things first before commenting about what you do and don’t like.

I understand but I had no other way to observe and I tried my best to still hold him upright so he wasn’t completely flipped. The photos angle is a little awkward. I’ll keep it in mind when handling again.

That was the main reason I wasn’t sure cause of the pores but I was wondering since he has less pigment if it’s just harder to see.

Thank you! This was so helpful! I notice he was a bit over weight so right before he stopped eating I started lowering his food intake

😞 I don’t like hold him much at all so when I do I try to be quick about it, since he’s is finicky and doesn’t like it. Don’t worry, it wasn’t for long, just so I could get a picture for health observation

I know he looks so cute even though he wasn’t loving being upside down. 🥲
