My gecko was shedding about 2 weeks ago and he somehow injured his tail. The bottom of his tail is blue and red and hasn't healed. I am worried for my little guy. Does anyone have any tips on how to handle this? Plz give me some info.

Sorry to hear it, can you post good pics to show the injury ? If it's really bad do you have a reptile vet to take him ?

Post pics so I can see if I might be able to assess it . What type of gecko is he ? Raw honey can work wonders on wounds but you have to be positive that there are no loose insects in the enclosure.

I can't post a pic. He is a leopard gecko. Thanks for the tip! Do you know anything other than the honey?
Thanks,

You can Google how to treat a wound on a reptile but look for a reputable source. Still, if it's a bad wound it's best for a vet to see about it.

Hello Hatchi,

Please keep us posted on your little leopard gecko. I hope his tail starts to clear up soon.

Swordtail has been doing a whole lot of "Lizard yoga" lately
Currently trying not to stress over my anemic dragon....she is being treated, but I don't agree with her treatment plan and have been seeking out a second opinion from another vet. If anyone else has dealt with anemia, please let me know how it was resolved. I am losing sleep over this :cry:
Another post lol. My beardie does not like enclosures. Her tank is the kids room and she has created a nesting/bed spot in the corner. She will cuddle with my son but she know when the lights are out and the kids go to sleep, she literally goes to her bed like she is our 3rd baby. I love her. And to think, I never wanted a beardie lol
Please help. My beardie is my baby and I am worried she may be egg bound but I can't tell. She is over 2 yrs old and has never laid an egg. She has been swollen for two days and can't tell if she may be impacted or egg bound. Please help.
I'm still looking to adopt. I live near Homerville Georgia.
