Strange tail happenings:(

[WilliamTheLeopardGecko]

Picture is kind of blurred. It just looks like the tail in bent in the center. He never dropped it right?

Yeah. Sorry about the blurry pic..
I have one more question. In between his teeth and his lips, there's some black stuff in between. What could that be?
Seems to be that this gecko needs to brush his teeth! Lol...
Seriously though, should I brush his teeth or wash them somehow?

No. You dont brush a geckos teeth. Black areas inside the mouth (COULD) be signs of mouth rot. It seems that you are beginning to have multiple issues with this gecko and it is starting to remind me of the multiple issues you started having with William. (not the same problems but problems never the less) I think you need to take him to the vet and have all these issues/concerns addressed.

Okay I will seriously have to go to the vet now. I'll give you the details afterwards!

Yea, it seems like you had constant problems with William and now you are having problems with this one. I highly suggest you take Oliver to the vet. Also I think you need to quit trying to handle him. I wouldn't be surprised if he did his tail like that when you were holding him under the flashlight. And if amputation is what the vet thinks is best, then you need to have it done. There are NO home remedies for this.

I agree with a few of the points here but the others I do not agree with as much.

I agree with you, but not as much. William was bought that way, and was never healthy, where this one is still pretty healthy, as far as the eating goes. And he's a healthy weight, too. But I do agree about the vet. We are most likely going to go in the weekend, and we have a good vet too.

I agree about the handling.
I would stop all handling for several months. You may be stressing him out and making him sick.
