Skinny?

[frost1375]

I was looking at craigslist and I found a post of someone getting rid of their 4 geckos. A few of them look really sickly. Very skinny. I don't know if its because mine are fat, or because they are sick. Am I allowed to post a link to the craigslist ad so you can see?

Of course, post away. We can help determine if they are just not well fed like we like to keep our geckos or are sick.

I believe this would be a question for the moderators here.

Either way, you cant be sure and they need to be quarintiened and fecal tested...and if real sickly looking, probably acid fast test also. well, to be safe.

Well, I'll post the link for it anyway...

There are three of them that look sick to me... unless it's because they are young? My geckos are really fat

Those are horrible! And from the looks of it (the lighter next to them), the people are smokers. Smoke is bad for geckos....for anything really! DO NOT BUY THEM!

And they are pregnant! WTF? Maybe he thinks that because they are impacted or have worms?

Okay... so they definitely look sick. I wasn't planning on buying them. I just like to check out craigslist and just look around. I came across that and was not happy with what I saw. And the person was saying how they were in such good health and stuff. I feel bad for the poor geckos.
