Where did you get him what was the first weight you got on him and when was that? Do you have a hatch date/weight. 5-7 grams is not that bad as long as he is only a few months old. Some grow slower than others but the better protean in there diet the better they grow. Also how big of a tank you have him in? Sometimes they choose a spot in a big tank and don’t come out of it much because the food seems so far away an they feel better (safe) in there little spot and are willing to go hungry because of it. At that size you could keep him in a 2-5 gallon tank with no issues.

If you take a look at her sides you can see she has a little rounding but she is not "fat". The tail is very strait and also the limbs. Eyes are clear and she is aware. Also make sure to keep an eye on her poop get an idea how it looks now so you know when it look wrong. It should be solid with a little white at one end but not very liquidy or to solid. They should "go" 1 time with in 2 days or a little more. These are all things that let you know that she is healthy. If any of these thing start to look off make sure you get some help since this is your first gecko. Reptiles are very good at hiding it if they are sick. Its a defense.

A lot of people have problems with using loose bedding because of impaction issues. This would not be an issue with your gecko because s/he dues not hunt/eat bugs. =)

I feed My Gargoyle CGD, mixed with Baby food (Peaches and pears). Now I Know it should be mixed with water however, the first two months i couldn’t get him to eat what-so-ever. I had to hand feed him every night. So, he’s finally started to eat on his own, and the second i reduce the baby food (Even if it’s just a little) he stops eating. I’ve tried Crickets and he show no interest at all.

By mixing the CGD with baby food you are cutting down the protean down by how ever much baby food you are mixing into the cgd. Also CGD has a lower amount of protean than the Gargs need but they no longer make GGD so you are stuck with CGD. You could try mixing in a little turkey or chicken baby food into the cgd. No more then 1/8 of a dish should be the the meat type and only do it for 1 or 2 feedings a week. My gargoyles hate crickets as well so unless you are willing to breed roaches it can be hard to get the babies a good amount of protean. Once your little guy reaches about 20-25 grams try a pinky once a month. I know it seems like they should not be able to take it but I cut up (pre-killed) the pinkies into 1/4s and they go after it quicker anyways.
