Here is Clyde. His formor cagemates picked on him so I got him as a rescue. Was told he might be Melanistic but after a bit of research I think he is a Hi-Yellow normal.

This is Tiny. She is my prized little girl. She is a SHTBCFT. Bought her at Petco when I went to buy some cage supples for J and ZEE. I saw something orange run fast in the cage so had to look. I fell in love with her so had to buy her.

And lastly my Giant Day Geckos. I have 2 of them. They were just about 2.5 inches when I got them and they are about 3.5-4 inches now.

I don't want to be rude or anything, but it looks like "Tiny" has MBD.
I could be wrong, because the pic made it look like that, but her rear-legs don't look like they should.

Apart from that they all look great, especially the phelsumas, I really like those

 

[Ccrashca069]

Its just the way Tiny was . I will take some better pics to check better. They get plenty of calcium plus I use an UVB light during the day. I am cage cleaning today so I will try sending you a pic so you can see.

The Giant Day Geckos are cool. They are the grandis. Their parents are both 11 inches long and very healthy.

Thanks

I was kind of in the same situation when I got spanky (my only leo) from a little petco-ish store. I'm pretty sure she had mbd when I got her, because the lady in the store didn't have any calcium in the tank she also had them on bark and left crickets running around in the cage all the time. It wasn't until after i got her that I found out that all these things are bad.

So I guess all this is working up to the question, was there any calcium in the cage at petco because if not tiny might have MBD.

P.S. don't those giant day geckos get loud?

 

[Ccrashca069]

Well Petco does not use humidity hides so I am guessing they don't put calcium in the cage either. Good news is the Petco I bought her from feeds the geckos mealworms not crickets. Also I just finished cleaning the tank Tiny is in and I have 2 more pics. So please let me know what you think.

This is Bonnie and Clyde being cute

Thanks,

John

My Giant Day Geckos are just babies still but I have not heard them make any noises yet.

Tiny is beautifull, but i really think petco has done some damage again.
Sorry about my comment earlier, I've just seen what MBD can do to a gecko.
But I can tell she's in good hands now

I would try giving her a little liquid calcium at least 1-2 times a week for a little while and see if that helps with the MBD. Also what do you mean by SHTBCFT? I am not sure if I am having a blonde moment and cant process this or what. But Tiny sure is a good PETCO find!

 

[Ccrashca069]

lol..... I think it was me having a blonde moment. I ment shtbct. I got a little key happy lmao.
I have seen what MBD can do also. My good friend and fishing buddy Joe runs a Reptile Rescue and Rattle Snake Removal. He is treating 1 leopard gecko for MBD right now. He has had it for about 2 1/2 months so far and its doing pretty good. He is thinking about adopting it out now. I never noticed anything wrong with Tiny except she is growing a little slower then ZEE and J. I bought all three of them within 2 days of each other and all were about the same size.
