Hi, Ive had 2 fat tailed geckos for the past 11 years and they both have been fine, up until recently.
The male is sadly not doing well .
His "testicles" or whatever they are keep popping out, he seems to be dragging his hind legs a lot, he has major shedding problems and his tummy feels all wrinkly, and he doesn't seem to be going to the bathroom often anymore. He doesn't run around at all and just sits there, before he used to run around and explore, but he still makes an effort to eat and is somewhat fat.
Why do his testicles keep popping out? Is he just old and ready to go? I usually get them to go back in by placing him in very very shallow warm water.
He lives separate from the girl.
The girl also mysteriously lost her tail after 11 years a few months ago. She didn't seem stressed at all and lost it whilst changing skin. It grew back extremely round and large...but I'm also wondering why it fell off in the first place. Otherwise she seems perfectly healthy.
I might be able to get some pictures later.
