The poop in the deli is great to take for a test right away. I'm not going into the whole quarantine deal but with this, but your new gecko will need to de-stress from the relocation and start eating regular prior to any kind of introduction to your other gecko. You probably already know that but I had to say it for the animals' benefit :)

i refuse to let you turn this into "one of those threads".... i never once said that i was housing them BEFORE i got them checked out.... i said i hope they get along or i WILL have to separate them. Please drop it...you were wrong in assuming.

just for the record and so you won't think I jumped to conclusions. This is what you wrote in the other post.

yeah im not worried about quarantine, as soon as i get a stool sample from both i am getting them checked at the vet...i just dont have the time to separate or equipment to have them separated for 4-16 weeks. If they dont get along then i guess i will have to separate them....im living on a prayer right now

i never said i was housing them immediately together before i had them checked from the vet...i just said i wasnt going to quarantine them. My new girl is at the vet as we speak in a 10gal tank with food and water and hides (paper towel rolls) with adequate heat...she will probably stay there until thursday so she can settle down, my friends mother didnt have a problem with keeping her a few days their at the vets office. once she is examined and the fecies from my other girl is too and everything turns out ok then i will be introducing them.

I was only looking out for their well being. fecals are not always 100% accurate. Sometimes you have to repeat them at least 3 times. It happened with mine in the past. I went once and it came out negative, a week later it was positive. Just letting you know.

wow she is pretty. I know this one is most likely healthy since she came from LZRDGRL and she takes good care of them. I just like to always take precautions.

i know with my last girl it literally took 2 weeks for her to start eating and get settled in, with the stress she is possibly under from being shipped i am going to let her settle at the vets office, but thursday/friday i will be "ATTEMPTING" to introduce them. I will monitor their actions and feed them separately for a while. as long as i dont see any conflict between the two i will let them stay together. I want her to get use to her new habitat.

Update- everything went amazing at the vet, she is as healthy as can be..... Very exciting to hear, I just introduced the new friends to each other and they both went into the most hide and freaking cuddled up. So awesome!
