Thanx Cham Forum from Minya-cave gecko

redoaksblues Jun 13, 2006 10:39 AM

Well, thanx to the CHAM forum, i have discovered Minya (Name is from the Godzilla movies - Baby godzilla) is a cave gecko and that her care is entirely different from the leopard gecko I was told she was, and since then I have lowered the temperatures and darkened her cave, she has drank from her bowel and actually chased a cricket.....

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!! Lets hope this was not too little too late.

Good luck redoaks. Try a few soft worms if you have any, they will help get her weight up- not that they are as fat as leopards even when healthy.

Here is an email of someone who breeds banded geckos and caves geckos and others, maybe if you email him he could be a big help to you with minya.
Worth a try !

Since I have lowered the temps and darkened the 10 gallon, she has come out, drank ON HER OWN and showed some interest in wax worms.

Thank you so much for the email adress!!!
