Hey, this is my first post, so hello :)
But, I just received my first 3 new leopard geckos, they came from my local farm supply (the closest thing we have to a pet store around here anymore) who gets their reptiles through LLL Reptile. They were special ordered for me so I got them the day they came in, but it looks like my little albino may have MBD? The leg surely does not bend at the right angles, and looks swollen. All the other limbs seem fine. I couldn't get any very good pics of his leg, but hopefully this will be helpful enough.
Thanks for any help in advance!

it does look a little bit swollen but it doesnt look like MBD, the main youd see from MBD is most of the limbs bending, like bow shaped. maybe its damaged or as you say broken, but cant really tell.

Glad that it doesn't look like MBD! I'll keep watching it and hopefully the swelling will go down. Maybe all it is is just a little swollen.
Thanks for your quick reply!
