Reply To: Leopard Gecko Care Guide

Greetings Kamiee,

Start by reading the Leopard Gecko guide posted on this website.

It does sound like maybe your new pet was dehydrated. Keep providing him with fresh water daily. Check out his tail, after you read the care guide. The tail should be slightly smaller than the body width. If it is very thin, that is an indication of malnourishment. Begin feeding him as many crickets and dubia roaches or silk worms that he will eat. Avoid mealworms. Don’t handle him much until you are sure he is in perfect health. It’s very good of you to take over his care!
