Hello, I'm Rose, and my fat-tailed gecko is 2 years old and weighs 78 grams.
It usually enjoys staying in the cooler area of the vivarium with daily supplementation of UVB light, calcium powder, and vitamin powder, only venturing into the warmer area during dusk or early morning; the recent ambient room temperature is around 25°C-28°C.
The vivarium contains crickets and Dubia roach, as well as decomposers like rat wife and springtails, but it usually does not actively feed.
Recently, I’ve noticed it has developed a leg trembling issue, and it seems unstable when stepping on the grass in the vivarium, with trembling feet.
1. I would like to inquire if the abundance of species in the vivarium is the reason it dislikes coming out to play?
2. Is the leg trembling due to the grass prickling its feet, or is it a result of a deficiency in vitamins or calcium?
Relatively speaking, its appetite is not as strong as it used to be, and at the current temperature, it only stays in the cooler area, very occasionally basking under the light for 30 minute in the early morning.
