Hi,

I have just bought a new gecko, it’s an Albino Leopard Gecko. He is about 4 inches in size but I’m not sure what age he is. I was looking at some pics of leopard geckos and mine doesn't look the same, he seems a lot thinner and his tail is tin, the geckos in the pics are fatter and have fat tails.

He is quite active and has eaten a cricket but I am wondering if he is underweight. Are geckos quite thin when babies? or is he underweight, if he is do you think he will get worse or can they be nursed back to health.

I know this is a bit vague and it would be better if I had a pic but I don’t have a digital camera. Any comments would be really appreciated

Thanks
