    Gravid, or Overweight?

    Hello, I just wanted to reply to let you know that she was actually carrying eggs. I don't know why she took almost 2 months to do it but she finally laid them last night and is back to looking like a very healthy weight!

    Gravid, or Overweight?

    Of course. Sorry for the late response, I was unable to access a computer for a while. Here are the pictures I took of her when I noticed she was getting large:

    Gravid, or Overweight?

    My gargoyle gecko suddenly shot up in mass about a month ago, becoming very round. I didn't and haven't changed how much I feed her, however- she gets 1/2 tsp of pangea powder mixed with 1 tsp of water 3x a week. She's allowed to eat as much as she wants in one sitting and then I take the bowl...

    Tips for Taming a Gecko?

    I have a infrared camera so I know for sure she isn't eating except when I hand feed her. I enjoy hand-feeding her but I can't do it every night and I'd like to be able to put food in her tank in the morning and know she'll eat it on her own. One of the main reasons I want to start handling her...

    Tips for Taming a Gecko?

    I have a new Gargoyle gecko, she's a little over a year old and has been in my care for about 6 weeks now. She's mostly eating when hand-fed and I have been hand-feeding her fairly regularly. I want to try to start getting her used to handling now, though. Any advice? Do I just start scooping...

    New Gargoyle Gecko Acting Stressed, Hiding all Night

    She has a food bowl right under her basking spot and another elsewhere in the tank. However, of course as soon as I post this she decides to start going up on her basking spot. She's also started pooping again so she must be eating her food, or some unlucky isopods, or both. I had been putting...

    New Gargoyle Gecko Acting Stressed, Hiding all Night

    I see. Well, that certainly describes how she was acting- she found her basking spot that she liked and she stayed there. However, she isn't eating on her own still which is really the main thing that concerns me. She doesn't go to either of the food bowls I leave in the tank because she doesn't...

    New Gargoyle Gecko Acting Stressed, Hiding all Night

    I got a new gargoyle gecko 3 weeks ago, a female who is still a bit juvenile, a little over a year old. When I first added her to the tank, she was understandably freaked out and just found her way to a corner where she felt safe and remained there. She didn't explore or eat for over a week...
