I have a question about nails. I know an all white/clear nail means hypo but does a clear with just a tiny dark quick mean the same?

Hello,

I am not sure on the nails, but there are several people who are good at depicting this. Post some pictures of the nails so we can see. :D

The quick can be darker since it's a blood vessel/tissue but it's not a dark brown/black like the normal pigment band - the marker for hypo is the lack of a band of pigment that runs along the top edge of the nail. It must be absent from every nail. Pictures would help, for sure :)

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
