Well it was on sand for the first month or two that I had it and it never ate sand. I removed it from the tank with the other Gecko permanently soon after. Me and Bala, the leo, have gone to the vet 3-4 times spread out of the last year and I have spent probably about 10 times as much as I did on her. I have seen three different vets and at least 4 different vet’s assistants. She wasn’t impacted. Her stoles were checked at least twice. I’m not sure, but I think on the last trip they sent her blood to a lab to be tested.
Three different opinions came out to be the same thing. It is either an inner ear infection or something is wrong with her brain. Antibiotics of two different types seemed to help for short term. I still don’t think she walks normal, but that may just be the way she is going to be because of the troubles she had while she was developing. She has always had a good amount of calcium as well as occasional vitamins. I have digital thermometers on both ends of her tanks and a hydrometer. For the last… 6 months or so she has had a reptile carpet with lots of large rocks in it which she loves to climb on. Her water dish is kept very clean, so is the rest of her tank. My friends say she has grown a bit and put on weight.
