Hi my albino leopard gecko has got this wierd thig with his mouth on the right side of his face on his lower lip is like curvered i don't really know how to explain it. Its like straight than his lower lip just curves down slightly and he hasnt eatin much since i noticed it but that could just be because the temps have droped but i dont know. Please help.

Oh yeah i forgot to say that hes 7 months old in his own 10 gallon and is being kept on a heating pad and a 25 watt light but I'm going to change that to a 40 watt for the winter.

A curved mouth? Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't a weakening of the jawbone and twisting of the mouth a sign of metabolic bone disease? Dust the little guy's food with calcium powder with D3...you can't fix the jaw, but you can stop the weakness of the bone and prevent further damage.

can you take a photo? it'll help

it basicly looks like a gap like his lip goes straight than you can see alittle pink from the inside of his mouth he ate a criket and a mealworm today I don't know what to do. I already lost one gecko. and I cant afford a vet bill right now.

I do dust his food every feeding and its not his jaw bone its his mouth the skin his jaw bone is ferm. and no i can't take a picture sorry.

Ohh and he has not taken food in a couple of days its weird I feed him mealworms. I'm wondering if he sick of mealworms?
