I while back i posted that my gecko had ingested some sand, stopped eating and drinking. I put him into a smaller quarentine tank where he pooped out the sand and began eating and drinking again. Over the following couple weeks he would eat, then stop for a few days, then eat a cricket then not take any.......so i started him on a supplement by syringe and proceded to take him to the vet for a fecal test. I just found out the test is NEGATIVE for everything WOOHOO!!!!! BUT this doesn't explain why he isn't eating so my vet suggested that we start him on some antibiotics and see what happens. I've had him since March and he's still very thin and small. Last nite he was out drinking and a little while ago i saw him go after a cricket (but he missed) so i'm going to try hand feeding the cricket. I'll also bowl feed the crickets to him thus removing their hopping legs so they are easier to catch like i did before. He still won't touch the mealworms.
Now i have a question...after switching him to the other tank he did get worse...its a 10gal and has all the neccessary basics. Could he be misrable in there having spent most of his time in a 20gal tank? I've redone the tank with textured ceramic tiles and all his original caves etc. are in the same places.
As per another post explaining what to check before a vet visit, the temps are good and the other things check out so we are kinda stumped!
Anyone have any suggestions, thoughts? Any help is very much appreciated
