Hi Guys,
Random question, I got my several week old leopard gecko (Raphael) in September this year. I know there are a lot of gecko owners with similar questions to mine.
I am worried about Raphael as I do not think he has shed as of yet. I personally thought it was time for him to shed due to the colouring of him, I was also aware the type of colour he has it is quite hard to tell.
His tank reaches 29C during the day and drops to roughly 24C at night. I apply vitamins/calcium to his live food, he has 3 hides (1 on warm side, 1 in cold side and the other in the middle for the moist hide which I cut out a plastic container and place a warm paper towel inside. He is eating regularly (I feed him roughly 5-7 locusts everyday/other day). The pet store staff told me he is a white and yellow tremper leopard gecko.
Lastly, I believe this could be his pattern but he has developed a black spot on his head which I am pretty worried about. Please see below pictures and let me know whether it looks like he is going to shed/anything wrong.. please I am quite worried.. I know this is very common lol.
If you require any other photos please let me know![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
