risque-de-chute: scalestails: So I just got this guy/gal today. I won’t say who/where I got it from but what I can say is that it was once healthy but denied food or water until it got like this. I do not have high hopes of recovery, it won’t eat on its own and can barely lift its head. I’m currently assist/force feeding CGD and tomorrow I’ll get some yogurt with live cultures to mix in. I soaked the little one already and I’m keeping it humid for the time being. Got a hospital tank set up. A vet trip isn’t possible at the moment… Frankly I don’t think the little one will last that long but I’m thinking of setting up a gofundme soon. That animal’s eyes look sunken in, and it’s body looks very stiff.I personally would not waste your money visiting a vet as in my experience when miscare goes this far, it’s gone TOO far. This gecko is on death’s door and there is no turning back when it is in this condition.I’m very sorry that you had to take on such a thing, and I am so very sorry for that poor life that has suffered so. :/ Poor thing :( I would suggest a pedialyte soak ( with a weak animal be VERY careful that it’s not inhaling water with a soak ) and to be very careful with the assisted cgd feeding. Giving too much food to a starving animal at once can result in it regurgitating and that’s the opposite of what you want. Small amounts of food offered gently, soak in pedialyte, and keeping it warmer might be your best bet but he’s in pretty rough shape. Best of luck -- source link
