I took my leopard gecko to the vets today as we have had him for 3 weeks and he has not eaten and he had pooped strange sandy like poo, we were concerned as the pet shop had him on sand and so we thought it may be an impaction. we found out today however this is not the case when examining him there was excess fluid in his tummy and not a great deal else. thhe vets were concerned that he may have stomach abnormalties and would if he was larger or weighed more been able to take it further by x-rays because he is simply too small and terribly anorexic the risk was very high and they didnt think anything would show on ultrasound etc. we were given two options the first being to put him to sleep however because he seems so alert and hydrated it seemed unfair to not give him a chance. so the second option is to assist feed him to see if we can kick start his appitite and hope it sorts itself out of he will get big enough for a more detailed diagnosis. so we have started to puree his food and he has eaten for the first time in weeks. i was just curious to know if anyone has had to do this?n any similar situations and the possible outcome.
