Hi, I hope someone can help. Something is wrong with
my female Tokay gecko and Im really worried that I
will lose her. Ive had her about 2 years now and shes
never been like this before. Last week I noticed she
was very dark and had this blue/purple 'glow' on her
back and tail. You could only see it if you were at an
angle to her. I put it down to her about to shed, but
I don't think thats it. She would have done by now.
She has also lost weight and is not eating. Two days
ago I found her clinging to the lightbuld when I
turned it on in the morning. I got her off but she
climbed back on while it was on. I thought she burned
her feet as she was walking 'on tip toes' so to speak.
Now all she does is stay out all the time, she doesnt
hide. Shes permantly dark and her back legs and tail
are funny. Her tail is curled up a lot and just looks
weird, could just be cos its thinner then normal. She
sits there with her back legs stretched out so her
back is arched up. Her front legs seem ok. Last night
she was kinda fitting. she was walking along and her
back legs kept coming off the wall and she was
basically rolling over. She was like it on the ground
too, her back legs were as if they were trying to flip
her on to her back. It was awful to watch as I couldnt
do anything :(
I don't know why shes stopped eating or has gone like
this. I expected her to be dead this morning. She has
never stopped eating before, and has always had a big
appetite.
What is wrong with my Tokay??
