Back in April/May? of this year I received this gecko and she developed a very hard fungal infection in her nasal cavity. Upon treatment I was able to kill the infection but most of the nasal cavity on that side was destroyed. She has since healed and almost all of the tissue has been replaced.
She eats really well, especially likes insects that move. I feed her mainly superworms and crickets but Im sure she would take to roaches.
Ever since she got the infection she has "gasped" for air like she has an upper respiratory infection. I have treated her with antibiotics twice and even ran a course of Reptaid and she still does "gasp" occasionally. I am not sure if this is an involuntary thing or maybe has to do with the fact she can only breathe out of one nostril. It also does sound kind of moist when she does it. The "gasping" is very infrequent.
I really want her to go to a home that is experienced in leopard gecko care and if need be will have the time and money to take her to the vet.
