sand impaction

shelgirl Feb 10, 2003 10:24 AM

After reading these latest posts about impaction and things, I'm wondring how many people get a leo from the store and bring it home, the leo is either sick already from the overcrowded conditions at the store or is having a hard time adjusting so they aren't pooping or eating and the new owners just assume it is sand impaction because that is what they were kept on at the store? Any thoughts?

We've purchased a gecko recently from the pet store and our gecko is fine...it actually enjoys being handled...i have the calci-sand but after reading these posts i'm in the process of switching to slate tiles.
