each post is about the same stating that its natural in the wild and when stress is added the parasites take over, but if you give medicen to the gecko then it kills bad bactirias and may damage kidneys, if proper aclimation is done with proper temps and clean enviroment, the parasites could get back in check and everything could return to normal,

i dont think i see enough symptoms to want to take that risk for my geckos. i have not checked any of my 5 bearded dragons for parasites and they are all eating and plump and healthy, i got my frill dragon checked and she didnt have any and she was imported and she was really sick at first because of stress and what not.

at this point i am going to wait a month to see if they gain weight on their own and adjust properly while keeping them hydratd
