Hi all... I have something new for you. If you'll remember, I'm having a few Leopard Geckos who aren't eating for me. This problem has lasted several months and they are losing more weight than they should be. I found someone locally who I formerly worked in reptiles with to recommend a local vet for reptiles. She said she could not recommend one locally but asked me the problem as maybe she could help since she did have experience in Leopard Geckos.
As with you all, she couldn't put her finger on the problem. She did recommend force feeding a pinkie to that one big male who is losing so much weight. It has been my experience in the past that force feeding them stresses them more than its worth. How do you all feel about that in this situation? She also said something else interesting. She suggested that I add some fruit to all my gecko's diets. She suggested Apricot baby food in a small dish. She said they will lick it as they need it. She claims that although scarce in the desert, in the wild Leopard Geckos will eat some fruit as they can find it. What do you all think of this theory and practice? I have never heard of Leopard Geckos eating fruit at all. Thanks as always... --Stacy ________________________________________________________________ The best thing to hit the internet in years - Juno SpeedBand! Surf the web up to FIVE TIMES FASTER!
