4 months old give or take a little bit, she weighs about 30 grams. How is she doing?

I've got one guy who is just about 4 months weighs in at 30 grams and is starting to pick up weight faster each week.. i suspected him to have parasites or some infection but his fecals came back negative, so I'm happy about that he's about 7 inches and gaining weekly so he's on his way... as they say every gecko grows at its own pace... I'd say she's fine.. good luck!

Could be healthy, also looks like she could have a mild case of worms. A fecal or round of panacur if you have it on hand and know how to dose accurately might not be a bad idea. She also looks a little dark. Does she have a warm spot of 90°? Adequate hides?

Also, in that second pic....I thoug I saw what could possibly be a hemipenile bulge. Are you sure she's a she and not a he?
