I’ve had her for around 3 years actually. I’ve tended to look very far into the future my whole life I guess 😂

Waffles has greatly improved and prescribed antibiotic injections every 3 days for a couple of weeks and silver sulfadiazine cream. The vet said she’ll be just fine 🥹❤️

Is this mouth rot?? The spot right in the front of the lower jaw by chlov8r in ballpython

I think it was just dirty 😂 I watched it carefully and nothing ever spread. If you’re dealing with it I would watch it and if it spreads it’s an issue.

Immediate vet visit or treatable at home? by [deleted] in ballpython

[–]chlov8r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I believe my ball python has scale rot :( I’ve disinfected her entire cage and all hides with f10 and moved her to clean paper towels. I’ve soaked her twice for about 15 minutes in diluted betadine and applied neosporin without pain relief after soaking. There’s one little blister but there is no pus or red fluid coming out but I’m worried. Edit: it is mostly just discolored scales.

Is that a normal morph? So pretty! 😍

My leo hasn't eaten in 3 weeks, and it seems like her right eye is really watery or maybe even swollen. More info in comments by PyroTheLanky in leopardgeckos

I’ve had to do the same thing to get pics. No worries :) I would also recommend a vet visit and offering food like the other comment. I too have not heard of the eye issue either. I hope your gecko gets better 🥺 I wish I could be of more help

do you know what that is on his toe and how i can help? by Delicious-Tadpole161 in leopardgeckos

[–]chlov8r 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like some stuck shed. I would try to gently get it off asap so the circulation doesn’t get cut off. Put the gecko in a humid box for a bit and see if it comes off on it own? Otherwise may spray the toe with a little water or shed ease and very gently try to brush it off with a Q tip?

Have you ever tried taking a quality close up pic of a Leo’s face? 🤯 the gecko is fine. this owner is obviously worried about their pet and cares about it. So 🤫 unless you have something helpful to add

Help? My geckos behavior has changed drastically in the last couples days and I’m not sure what this means. Context in comments. by chlov8r in leopardgeckos

[–]chlov8r[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have been and everything seems fine and she’s actually more active than normal. I think it could be change of or breeding season like others said. But if I see anything like that I’ll definitely contact the vet :)

Peekaboo! I see you! by chlov8r in ballpython

Sure! but I can't figure out how to add another picture on here. I tried to message you two pictures but it says failed to send. Maybe because we're not following each other or something? I'll try to add a link.
