sorry about all the orange on her. She has been hanging out in the sand area of her tank. As you can tell she is about to shed. Afterwards I will examine her.

It may look like I am holding her but her back leg is on my hand, and she is very used to being handle and isn't scared at all of me.

it's becaused it's stressed or scared. they use it as a defense mechanism.. you do need to use caution when holding them by their tails and add support to the front legs but done right, is no harm...... just be gentle. but like i said normally tail dropping is due to stress or they are scared and used as a defnse mechanism

Calm down a little!!!! THe gecko probably will not lose its tail. And another thing, EASY ON THE CAPS. SEE HOW ANNOYING THIS IS. Some geckos can be hung upside down by their tails no problem, others might not. Personally i dont risk it. I do have a gecko with a regenerated tail. Walked in my room one day to find a gecko with a stub. Still have no clue why. I bet if i grabbed her by the tail, she'd probably drop it again.

Dont call people retarted, or insult them in any way. Treat people with respect.
