find the slurry thread
slurry works best for sick leos that wont eat. gives them that extra boost to getting condition in their bodys back to normal ect

sorry im late. yes slurry its a blitzed up mixture of feeder insects with vits that you suringe onto the geckos mouth. they dont like things on their face and will lick it off. so this is the best way to get food into the gecko thats sick or just wont eat

It is rarely necessary to syringe feed a leopard gecko, and can be stressful. They will lick it from their little lizard lips, therefore consuming nutrient. Very simple to just dot it on them.

yeah thats what i said! its still easyer to put the mixture into a suringe because its easyer to control the amount you give them
