OMG LOOK WHO I FOUND

[Perefalcon]

I went down to the basement to get the coins from the laundry since I was have preggo cravings, and I went to leave and on top of the smoker, peeking out from under the handsaw on top was my missing crested male!!!!!!!!!!

Just lookin like he's been looking all over for me!!!! I have no idea how he made it down 2 stories, but I held him and cried all the way upstairs!

here he is after over a month missing, very thin and in need of som ecrazy spoiling!!!

 

[Golden Gate Geckos]

Awww!!! I'm so glad you found him! He'll be glad to have some TLC and a good meal!

 

[Grinning Geckos]

YAY! Congrats on finding him!! Looks like you were just in time. That's gonna be a spoiled gecko!

 

[brandy101010]

I'm very happy you found him? did you ever find the monitor? That was you right?

 

[Perefalcon]

yes the monitor is still missing, hopefully when I go down to do laundry tomorrow he'll pop his head out too!! LMAO

Well, he's being spoiled, peach baby food to entice him to eat, packed with herptivite and calcium D3 to get his levels up

 

[Jeanne]

Yeah! Tonya that is awesome! He definately needs some spoiling

 

[nwheat]

Congrats!

 

[ExcessiveHerps]

Awesome!

 

[Perefalcon]

OK, anyone else see the crooks in his tail?

Could this be caused by the lack of calcium and is there any way to reverse it, before he disapeared he did not have that crookedness

 

[chamillionair]

oh,i am very happy for you,and i cant wait to see a pick after he has gone a week of two with some propper eating

 

[geckolover2006]

poor little guy
he was probably starting to get MBD. give him calcium powder. once he fattens up you should barely be able to notice the crooked parts.

 

[marula]

i'm happy for you too!
good new!

It could be caused by the lack of calcium. Not sure if it can be reversed. I would make sure to dust his food with the calcium and keep a small container of it in his enclosure.

Congrats! Updates?

 

[Perefalcon]

well, this morning I gave him some peach baby food laced with calcium only, I didn't give him any water or food yesterday to try to prompt him to eat something, and I put some on my finger and gradually lured him to the food. It worked!!!!!
This is the first time since I found him that he's eaten voluntarily. Later I'm gonna try to give him a meal worm, since I'm positive that while he was on his little "vacation" he aquired a taste for things like centipedes and spiders since they're all over in the basement. I'll update later whether or not it worked.

 

[Perefalcon]

YAY HE ATE A MEALWORM!!!!!!!!

and I dipped it in his food first to get some of the calcium on it too I was being sneaky, but it looks like he's gonna make it!

 

[brandy101010]

Yay! I'm so glad he is eating and is doing well!

 

[eyelids]

That's great!

 

[Perefalcon]

I'm not sure how this happened, but he's now 30 grams!!! That's 10 grams more than what he weighed after I found him.

Here's a new pic after only a few days of spoiling, I think it's from being so dehydrated.

Looking alot better there Tonya
