Well, I have delt with geckos many years and never heard of a vanishing pattern snow....mabey a hypo snow. But I think those 2 are not those morphs. My guess is a very stressed sick faded normal. And a very sick stressed tang carrot tail. i am glad you got those to the vet....I would deffinatly suggest taking care of those two after you have care for your other reptiles.
Thanks everyone! *Update*
Both females have eaten 3-4 dusted Wax worms and 1-2 Phoenix worms! Have soaked in water and are tucked away in their hides. As the time goes on I will keep updating everyone daily with pictures and progress of the two
Glad to hear they are eating well and the vet visit went ok (at least worms are treatable and hopefully they will make a full recovery). Good luck with them! Please do keep us updated! :main_yes:
Today 1/14/08* She ate two wax worms, drank, and licked off of her calcium bowl. My friend took the other female, so she will be posting pictures and updates, her username is Denim.
I'm glad that the vet gave them a good prognosis. I don't mean to sound cold hearted but I think it's important to mention that paying for a sick gecko is not "rescuing" it. It's only giving that breeder $40 and encouraging them to keep doing what they're doing. I know it's natural to see it as helping and it is, but on the larger scale it's promoting the business of someone who is neglecting animals.
I couldn't agree with you more Mel, the next time I do go to the expo, I will be sure to get this "Breeders" information and hand it over to Marcia! And I will hand the vet bills, and progress pictures of the two, to this so called breeder! I'm not done with these people, dont worry!
Ok, Today 1-15-08. My girl is doing alot better, a yellowish tint is starting to come in,and she gained 4 grams since the day I brought her home, she has been eating her calcium out of her dish, and took 2 Wax and 2 Pheniox worms today, took 2 wax and no Pheniox worms yesterday. Shes becoming more and more calmer. I saw her out of her hide last nite, she came out to explore her humid hide, and get a drink!
Still havent thought of a name for her.. Any Idea's.. Pictures coming in a few hours!
Hey everyone, my girl shedded today! Not as much yellow as I thought coming in.. But still her white and brown are coming in much more viberant! She ate 3 waxies today, I'm going to try n offer her the slurry tomorrow! Also her wormer is almost up, she goes back for another check up on Friday so hopefully she will be almost worm free, I'm going to weigh her tomorrow, I'm going to keep a feeding/weight chart on her, also sorry I forgot about the pictures, fell asleep.. haah its 11:30 now, I was supposed to be in bed 30 minutes ago haha. But I just wanted to give everyone a quick update on them. My friend just joined here, so she will be posting further pictures/updates and maybe even a feeding vid!
I'm sorry to report.. My female just passed away through the nite, not sure what happened but she just died ... My friends female is still alive and doing well.. Hoping they will post pictures soon!
