I lost 2 baby leopard geckos, gotten for free from a petstore. I tried to rescue them, thinking they were so skinny from malnutrition. I posted on the LG forum a few times asking why my geckos were not gaining weight, and had huge black stomachs. No one could tell me. I’m going to post this for all you people who buy geckos, especially from petstores. Dont buy the skinny ones thinking you can save them. Look at there stomach if there are large black areas, no its not because they have see threw skin. Crypto is horrible, and now i am passing on the knowledge in case someone like me comes on asking the same questions, now everyone can no and pass on there knowledge. DONT BUY GECKOS FROM A PETSTORE IF THEY LOOK LIKE THIS:





Heres a post explaining it verbally

Not trying to be rude but you helped the petstore by buying those geckos. Not even pros can bring a half dead gecko to life. Sad story but dont try to "rescue" a gecko all your doing is helping the store.
My condolences

Ballpythonclan,

Please read the post before replying. Reptile_freak got the geckos for free. And don’t forget the end of the post, in all caps, that’s kinda hard to miss....
