I have a leopard gecko named Foster (because when I got her she was just a foster but now that's her name c: ) with really bad MBD. Im kind of worried about her though.
I've had her for a week or two, and in this time period she's only eaten once, which was 7 phoenix worms and 3 mealworms. She's only pooped four times, the first one looking normal, brown with white, the next two really liquidy but then they turned so dry, and this last one, just the white part.
I noticed a few days ago that the regenerated part of her tail looked like it was deflating, I realized she couldnt get to her water. so I got one of those little repti ramp bowls for her, but ever since then I've been giving her water with a syringe a couple times a day. I've also been giving her repti boost. But she won't eat.
Another thing, she won't go in her hides. At first, I had three normal size hides, and she was just laying out in the open 24/7. If she did go in one, her butt would stick out. I figured its because she can't turn around in them because its too hard, she has to drag herself on her bent little legs So I got one of those giant hides that take up half the tank and there's plenty of room to get in and out and she can turn around, but she's still just laying out.
She also like, weezes. She'll be laying there and she'll breathe through her mouth really hard.
I'm really worried, can someone help? She's my sweetest little girl and I'll do anything
