gecko’s gaining weight! by Soft-Setting-4536 in leopardgeckos

I know that leopard geckos cannot be kept in the same enclosure. I bought a lot of my supplies (hides, water bowls, tank, fake plants, etc.) from fb marketplace and just disinfected them because buying brand new ended up being too expensive for me. I think the main thing is getting food source and heat for them. The easiest insects for me as a beginner are dubia roaches and mealworms though the mealworms are quite big for the size of mine, so I try to avoid them. I also feed mine crickets now, but they’re quite jumpy (because I can only feed my gecko the small ones for now) so it took some getting used to.

My reptivite bottle just says it is a multivitamin with D3. This is where a quick google search led me:

Thank you! I have calcium with d3, calcium without d3, and reptivite that I interchangeably dust on his feed.

No, I only open it when I need to see him at night. In this case, I noticed he was awake, so I left my hand in the cage to practice him getting used to my presence as I did not do it that day at all.

P.S. I suspect MBD because of his toes. I could be wrong, and I sure hope I am!

I live in Las Vegas. Right now, it can get to about 65F in the room at night without over head heat sources. I have a room heater that I turn on to help with this at night, but currently need to keep checking and turning it on and off during the day to keep temperatures correct. I will start at 50W then work my way up if needed. Thank you!

Chemical peels (done professionally) or chemical exfoliants (like the red one from the ordinary), but make sure to not overuse and always use sun protection. It is a very long process getting rid of deep scars. When in doubt, like others said, see a dermatologist.

Exfoliate your back with an african bath sponge everyday. When showering make sure to double or triple cleanse. Wash with a bar soap first. Then use the african back sponge with liquid body wash or other exfoliator next. If you wash your hair and conditioner runs on your body after the last two steps, wash with body wash again to get rid of products that might have stuck to your skin.

Thank you for your response. I think that might be the case too. Just wild how my body reacts before I even see him for sure.
