Hey just wanted to give a little success story over here in the Health and Medications section. We got Cleo about a year ago and she seemed to peak out in the low 40 gram range. She was one of our most veracious eaters but managed to stay pretty tiny. We got a fecal exam on her at the Tampa Expo and it turned out she was full of hookworms. This is what she looked like at 44 grams:
When we brought her in to pick up the medication the doctor was surprised Cleo looked as good as she did. Based on the fecal he was expecting a half dead gecko. WELL 3 rounds of panacur later and she is now a 70 gram monster and growing really really fast.
Now she spends her time on her favorite log waving her tail at the other geckos making sure they don't even think of taking it! (even though they are all in different tanks :main_laugh Sometimes we'll walk in and she'll be having a staring contest with Hope in the tank across from her haha
