My new leopard has an inpaction (advice needed!)

hanniball Sep 18, 2003 03:35 PM

So now i know. my leopar really have an inpaction!!!
he stopped eating around 1,5-2 weeks ago and i removed him from his sand a week ago. (i know.. i will never use sand as an substrate again)
My gecko (named Eric by the way) have had several bath yester day and today and he has manage to poop oute some small stones ( I used sand with far to big stones!!!) he also pooped some stones this night.
I am taking him to the wet tomorow after school. but I wonder if you guys have any advise to do with my bet so that he can get better! you guys probably have alot more experience with geckos and inpaction than the wet have! so I will be happy on any advise given to me and my gecko!
please I don't whant him to die!

I would make sure you have him on paper towels, and soak him in warm water for about 15 min or so. Make sure you get him into the vet ASAP. And follow every instruction the vet gives you. Good luck.
