So as some of you may know I rescued a sub-adult leopard gecko I've now dubbed as Honey Bee, Bee for short. When I first got her she was 5 inches long, on the skinny side, and walked on her elbows/armpits and pretty much scooted her front end across the floor.

With much calcium and tlc she's made a huge 180! She can now walk on her feet, though she's rather gimpy and bows one of her legs way out when she walks. But non-the-less she is 110% better than before. In not even a month shes walking on her feet, grew 2 inches, and gained 15 + grams. She's a happy girl! And a trooper! She's been shedding like crazy in the past month and a half. Heres some pics!

Bee in full shed. She was tripping over herself it was kind of cute. Luckily she has amazing sheds, generally I dont see her shedding as she usually hides and pulls it off at night but this time I really caught her.

And I helped her out a bit...her face was pretty much all shedded off I just gave a tug to get it off and this is what I got...

Glad to hear she's doing so much better. Looks like she's got great color and pattern under that old skin-I really like the way she looks. Any chance we could see a post-shed pic?

Thank you. :)

Heres a pic of her out of shed...this pic is from a month ago when I first got her. So she's a little on the skinny side/ a bit smaller. When she comes out of shed, I can get a good updated picture of her...probably tomorrow. I dont know what color morph she is. Someone told me a broken reverse stripe. Even though she looks like she may have Typhoon in her? I will never know, as Im not breeding her or anything and Im no good on genetics / leo morphs and will leave that to the professionals. lol
