It took a while with her soaking but i finally got the unshed skin off the second gecko. This little one sure didnt' like my help hehehe

I've split my 40gal in half and put that gecko plus Ali (the albino) there. Both of them have been walking weird, but now that the extra skin is off i'm hoping they will walk on their foot. The foot on the hypo (still gotta name her) was not that badly covered in skin, just on the toes but she wouldn't walk on the foot, more like her elbow. Her toes were curled up with skin but now its open.
THANKYOU to everyone who offered advice

Each gecko has its own space, they have all pooped normal looking poop and all but the male (Bronx) have eaten. I'm going to pick him up some crickets.....i put a mealworm right in front of him, he came up, licked it, turned his nose up and walked back into his hide hehehe. This guys got attitude

It took me a long time to feed them all tonight.....counting out the mealworms, getting out each dish. I spent time with each one handfeeding so i know they would eat. It was alot but i enjoyed every minute of it.

I absolutely love this

Her toe was curled up in the skin? Ow, that would be comfortable. It's good that you took care of it right away then.

I think I spend way too much time feeding my geckos, too. My mom thinks they're high maintenance, but nope, I just like to feed them one by one and watch.

And dude! I found another escaped superworm in my room last night. This one was alive though. lol

Hi Ya her toes weren't all out straight and boy did she fight me every time i touched it. It looked like it hurt After a while though, the skin came right off, i just hope she starts walking right now although i imagine it'll take a few days if it was really sore. During this process i put her humid hide into her side of the 40 gal on top of the new UTH i bought today. It was all set up except for the one hide. I checked over each gecko when i picked them up and only the male blizzard had some skin on its foot (which came off on the ride home).

Feeding them was exciting and worrysome. I just hope they all grow as much as Boo did and as quickly.

I'm hoping i didn't drop any mealworms when i was counting them all out hehehe......i don't think i did but everytime i take them out i worry i'll drop one.
