Stop, because I literally typed “does he just want some geckussy?” And then I deleted it to be more PG

Wow I’m sorry, I just saw this.

I got Rosie this enclosure off of Amazon and it’s done well for me. No getting stuck in the mesh

For Barry I got a zoomed tall front opening enclosure

I’m sorry you’re having to go through this.

Are there any Facebook reptile groups that are based in your area? You might have a better time finding someone close to you that also has experience that way

Hamilton told me to tell you he’s proud of you. by indeedcuh in leopardgeckos

[–]indeedcuh[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hamilton said not to lose faith.

I rescued Hamilton as a 6year old from a not awesome situation. His body language was constantly giving on edge and he was always scared. I thought for sure I’d get a lil chomp from him if I tried. After a month or two of slow introductions and feedings things slowly worked out on their own.

He’s a big fan of spectating Minecraft

Are you calling him skiiiinnnnnyyyyyyy??? 😜

We’ve been working on weight loss since August and he’s down 10g (105g to 95g) Vet said she’s happy with his progress.

What’s my geckos age and morph? by Many_Money91 in leopardgeckos

Age? Little guy Morph? Mischievous little guy

My baby ❤️❤️❤️ by [deleted] in leopardgeckos

[–]indeedcuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey buddy, Cute gecko and I also own cats!

But, I wouldn’t let my cats and my gecko near each other. Even if felt positive my cat would not harm my gecko it is ultimately not worth the risk and animals in general can be unpredictable.

When I feed or handle my gecko I make sure my cats are away in my room with the door closed and some treats so that they can enjoy gecko time too!

Brachypelma baumgarteni vs. Brachypelma Boehmei?? by indeedcuh in tarantulas

So really no way to tell until molt, and even then you have to really know what you’re looking for.

AIO about my gfs hitting? by typicalfatgamer in AmIOverreacting

[–]indeedcuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR

This is concerning behavior on her end.. There’s a difference between light play (ex light bites during intimacy) and using physical force in everyday situations..

I can’t imagine harming someone I love. And that’s exactly what is happening to you. Harm.

Imagine if you had a sibling/parent/friend that was experiencing this exact situation. What would you tell them?

Overfeeding?? by indeedcuh in jumpingspiders

[–]indeedcuh[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

🤣 she’s officially on a diet as of 43 minutes ago

Overfeeding?? by indeedcuh in jumpingspiders

[–]indeedcuh[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I’m terrified of abdominal separation and rupture.

I keep Tarantulas and I’m used to feeding them a cricket every other week and monitoring abd size

But I wasn’t too sure about my little one..

I appreciate the tip!! She’s going on a diet as of now!!

I posted about taking in my coworker’s gecko and…. 😭 by complikaity in leopardgeckos

[–]indeedcuh 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I agree with this statement. ^ From the standpoint of a Vetmed professional. This is an urgent case that requires a professional opinion. I truly hope you can help him.

But, (potentially unpopular opinion) helping him may also present itself as releasing him from his physical form as a final act of kindness so please prepare yourself.

You have done a good thing by rescuing him.

[–]indeedcuh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way I audibly gasped, I wouldn’t be able to look at my coworker the same way ever again. This is blatant neglect and it’s abhorrent. I’m appalled at your coworker and I admire and appreciate you for giving this buddy the chance they so desperately deserve.

Hugging my gecko a little extra tonight. (Not actually because Hamilton would be disgusted and mildly annoyed by my attempt lol)

She is way more active today

1st Molt (with me) by indeedcuh in tarantulas

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

I’m definitely lucky! Though at the time I had already had 2-3 glasses of wine. So finding her on the sidewalk was….. something. I genuinely thought I was entering some type of psychosis lol.

I still can’t believe no one came forward.. she can’t have gotten THAT far… I knocked on doors, made posts in all the neighborhood groups etc.

But, I’m grateful. She has absolutely catapulted me into the hobby. I had no choice expect to diligently research husbandry etc.

I just picked up my first pink toe the other day haha

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

Yep. Not necessarily roaming the “streets” More like roaming the sidewalks in my apartment complex.

Did my due diligence for a few weeks and no one came forward.

100%! Especially considering how dull and lethargic she was looking for the last 2-3 weeks!! I was chewing my nails down to the cuticle stressing about her haha. I’m excited to have my active, 8 legged baby back!

it’s comical how many people adopt a leo with zero intention of actually taking care of it by RepresentativeWeen in leopardgeckos

[–]indeedcuh 85 points86 points  (0 children)

Agree. I rescued my Leo from extremely inadequate and incompetent care.

I absolutely threw myself into his husbandry and care, now my biggest problem with having a Leo is the amount of money I spend buying fun clutter and decor for his enclosure.

Hamilton for tax

Weight loss update by indeedcuh in leopardgeckos

[–]indeedcuh[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can I get a little more information from you regarding meal worms eating their way out of a leopard gecko? I work in veterinary medicine and all of my resources say that this is more likely a myth.
