I've been treating his open wounds with iodine and soaking his feet in warm water to try and remove left over skin but nothing i try seems to be working it only seems to hurt him more as he chirps and wriggles to try and get away he has stopped eating since his last shed and hasn't shed since... his tail is becoming very small he mostly stays hidden away in the large cave most of the time only emerging to poop and drink he wont even look at the food i think some of his toes maybe to far gone to save but if i can save the others i will try my very best... i just don't know what to do any more any advice?!....

Here are 2 pictures of one of his back and front feet:-

Those pictures look pretty bad. It's no wonder he's in pain. They don't look like its a shedding problem but almost look as though they've been burnt. Do you have a way to measure the surface temperature in your tank? The thermometers you describe sound like they are measuring air temperatures and the floor temperature may be way too hot.

I think at this point you really need to seek veterinary care. I don't think anyone can help with simple advice.

In the meantime. Get him into a tank of his own, away from other geckos that may hurt him and where you can monitor his eating individually. Do not leave crickets in the tank. They may nibble on his wounded toes and make them worse.

Best of luck and keep us posted on his recovery.

Several problems here, but this gecko really should see a vet.

1) This is a male housed with another male? HUGE problems. That is probably one of the big issues. He is beginning to reach sexual maturity, and the males will fight - to the death sometimes. He needs removed immediately. And if the other geckos are the same ages or if any of the females are under a year, the other male needs removed. It's breeding season and if the females become gravid too young, you will have some very serious problems. Unless you are listing the male as his own cagemate, in which case, he should still be separated from the females as he is too young. Either they are his size and too small to breed (so they should be kept away from males) or they are larger and he could easily be bullied by them.
2) You can't have 6 geckos in one enclosure with only two hides. Each gecko should their own three hides.
3) Your gecko needs a humid hide to be able to shed properly.
4) You can't be leaving crickets in the enclosure, especially not that many. They will bite your gecko.
5) The warm side is too cool. It needs to be 88-93 (31-34) on the ground. What you have now is too low (assuming these temps are being read by your thermostat).
6) Can you link the supplements you're using? I can't find the T Rex one.

EDIT: Also, how big is this enclosure? You said it's 862 cm wide, but that's equal to roughly 339 inches/28 feet. Did you mean millimeters?
