Great work, I'm glad your restoring this little guy!

[@aliciadishman]

? Is your Beardie pissed off or did you add the black beard? Lol😅

[@myssixensen7516]

that's an awesome trick to know!!! I hope the little one feels better soon...how is the other rescue you got a couple weeks ago(sorry I'm having memory issues I just remeber it was bigger and broke my heart, stupidit had stuck shed {on the third eye?} I hope its doing better too... I know giev enough time with you it will feel safer and start doing better, so thank you for caring for these animals. thank you for all you do & take care!

[@Tasymantis]

poor gecko waiting to see how you will help his eyes

[@Laura_Stern]

Please help him remove the remaining shed on his feet and eyes! Please give him a "humid hide bath" 🙏 Thank you.

[@joyglocker8318]

Soooo many questions: Is it a new rescue? What happened to him/her? Did you give Vit A for the eyes? How do you help with the right eye? Only a humid hide? Are the nails too long? What can cause a hunger strike like that?

[@Animal1Guy]

oh hi! just a temp resident to get weight up and eyes fixed. Nails are ok for them. I need to clean the eyes, but I have done videos on that before.

[@bobbiwallace662]

well i had to tell u my leo just bite me so hard i am bleeding BUT she ate she looks fine but not eatting to well lately i feel dumb but i didnt know they could bite so hard to brake the skin

[@sonnyguerrero619]

im no expert, but i heard that if a leo stops eating and is skinny, that means their kidney is probably failing or is done. hope nothing but the best

[@G.r.e.g.g.l.e.s]

I'm also quite concerned about those claws and toes. It looks like a case of mild MBD and bad husbandry with nowhere to file the claws! No gritty rock, basking slab, or rough cork bark or wood

[@BeckyWilson1970]

How long do you let them go without eating before you try this method?

[@rdnkenki]

❤

[@follielafemme]

He doesn’t look that skinny

[@peggygray6071]

I know this is a video on a gecko not eating. I have a bearded dragon that won't eat vegetables anymore. She did but has recently stopped. What can I do to get her back to eating them again? She just wants to eat meal and supper worms. Please help me.

[@wombatperson5431]

Ok mine stopped doing that as well and I have a few tips. First, you might try replacing their light. Those tube lights aren’t super bright and frequently run out of uvb. This makes them sluggish. I got a brighter, uvb LED light and now my beardie will eat veggies if I move them around like a bug! If that doesn’t work, the syringe feeding method will work for a beardie as well. I take veggies, water and vitamin powder and blend it all up and put it in a syringe and drop it on his lips. If you don’t want to start with syringe feeding then this method he’s using on the gecko should work as well. Mine didn’t want to eat during brumation and I spoiled him with worms and after that he decided he didn’t want to eat anything else lol. There’s a great forum online called MyReptile Forum that I use, it has very helpful members.
