Interesting. The first thing I have to say, is good for you for following through with the vet visits. The walking funny thing I am pretty sure is calcium related. You know about the fact that Geckos can't live off of Calcium with heavy D3 in it, or in their vitamin powder that is used along with it. Vets are weird, one place I toook my gecko to said that they needed natural sunlight, another place said that they didn't. One palce tried to get me to feed her a dry pellet diet if you can imagine that,.. they said tie a string around the lump of what ever the *%#$ it was and pull it across the ground in front of your gecko,.. YEAH RIGHT AS IF... anyways, I am glad to hear that your one geck is doing better. The sand thing, I have to say when they are babies and they are on sand, they eat it dude,.. none of us have 24 7 gecko vision and are watching to see everything they do. Impactions are also realy hard to notice. Mine was only visable through a highpowered led shined straight through her belly skin, and that was because the lump of sand she had in there was huge. It could be that she is a mentally challenged geck, it may be that she has some kind of strange protozoa that lives in her brain, I have heard of all kinds of stuf on this forum. The important thing is that she is alive and doing better. I applaud your efforts. What is she eating, how much, you said your friends say she is gaining weight,. have ya tried pinkies? Waxies, I just realized that I haven't been feeding mine as much as I could. I have been feeding like twice a week about 5-6 king mealworms,, yeah I upped the amount and they ate them all, so now its like three times a week, and like 10-15 king mealies. They are getting plump. Anyhow, good luck with your pet,. Robert
