Gracie's First Bath

[Leopard.Geckerz]

No, I did not let her get into this condition myself. There's a thread about her in Gen. Discussion that explains her story. This is her second day home, and her first bath. (Trying to remove the skin from her toes.)

she fell asleep

I think so. I'm not a morph expert though. I got this other gecko before, from someone who didn't want him (but he was in totally fine shape, aside from being cold..) and once he warmed up he went from pale yellow to VIVID tangerine. So I'm not sure if Gracie will get yellow-er?

Wow, only 35g I'm so glad she's in capable hands now. I think she'll probably do fine, aside from being skin and bones she doesn't look ill, but I guess it's had to tell for sure. I hope she starts putting on weight.

She doesn't act ill, she's fairly active. It's sort of (actually, it's extremely) disturbing to hold her though.. so bony. Most of my geckos are over 70grams. Closer to 80 in most cases, lol. (I have a few growing up)

It looks like from the pics that this is the best day of her life... good job, you.

Looks like she is in great hands now. If she doesn't act ill and moves around pretty good then it sounds like good news. Alot of times sick geckos will be more slugish. She may of just not been feed. Hope everything goes good!

Aw, that's really sweet. She did seem to enjoy the pampering.

That gecko has been lucky enough to finally get an owner who cares for her. Keep us posted on her turn around

Man! That is one skinny gecko! But atleast it seems as tho she is in good hands now, so i think she'll do just fine! Any idea on how old she is?

Atleast it looked like she enjoyed her day at the spa! lol

I'm not sure on her age Length wise she doesn't seem QUITE as long as some of my adult girls... but I think she was bred, because she has all sorts of weird scars on her head, back and tail, so I think she was bred young and stunted? A teenager owned her, so she couldn't be more than say, 5, I would guess...?

Please update this thread as she improves. I'd love to see progress pics.
