I have a very frail little hatchling, and I am afraid she won't make it through the weekend. Can anyone tell me a humane way to euthanize her at home so that I keep her from suffering any more?

To a vet yet? What exactly is she suffering from? It's sad to see people asking about ways to euthanize their geckos when they havent even been to a vet yet. If you HAVE been to a vet, and theres nothing else you can do, i would get the vet to euthanize her. I wouldnt give up, leos are extremely hardy and can make it though alot of pretty bad stuff. Give us some more info on the situation and maybe we can help somehow.

Yes, I took her to a vet Thursday and he was no help at all. I had to spend $46 for zero information. He just said to keep trying to feed her. My regular vet (who is totally awesome) is on vacation, and won't be back until June 11th. My little gecko is 11 days old, and she just seems to get weaker each day. She hasn't eaten on her own, so I have been trying to feed her a water and baby food mixture several times a day, but it doesn't seem to help. I just don't want to see her suffer longer than necessary because I can't get to a vet until Monday.

that you dont like to see her suffer, its only human, but trust me, they're very hardy and she has a chance, just dont give up on her. keep trying to give her the baby food, that will keep something in her belly. hows your setup? is she thin/losing weight? do you have an idea of whats wrong with her? getting weaker by the day could be alot of things. keep her warm, sick geckos especially need to be warm. good luck,
