rescue

My 5 year old leopard gecko, Lena, hasn’t been eating lately and my parents think we need to rehome her. I got her from a breeder at a reptile convention when she was a few months old and she’s never had any problems except for not eating at times. Well, she’s had eyesight issues which affect...

Hi there! I work at a local pet store and we got some fan footed geckos. Recently a new employee (who no longer works for us now) decided it would be a great idea to step away while cleaning the fan footed gecko enclosure and leave the cover off. One of our geckos escaped and ran behind our wall...

Hello, I rescued a leopard gecko from a family member who was severely neglecting her. She's 10 months old. My cousin asked me for advice when his gecko was refusing to eat. I asked him for a picture and the attached photos are what he sent me. I told him to give me the gecko immediately so I...

I am not new to the occasional Craigslist ad of poorly cared for animals being sold here, in fact, I aim to rescue leos that have been subjected to bad husbandry so they have a chance at a better life. I am making this thread just to rant about these Craigslist gecko owners. I never rant to the...

Hello, I have never owned a reptile before and rescued a leopard gecko with little known history. He/she is about 6in long and weighs 23 or 27grams (I forgot exactly although it’s in my chart at the vet). Also the tail is skinny too in my opinion. Vet thinks relatively healthy and has some...

I'm Holly, and I currently live in Atlanta. I own 8 leopard geckos, I rescue/adopt them only. I'm not very interested in breeding or collecting, just rescuing as a hobby. Sadly i'm not super interesting. I just have interesting geckos with amazing stories. I actually came here to find a...
