my female who is about to lay her 2nd clutch shakes her legs whenever she walks slowly. When she lifts one of her front legs to walk on the way down it shakes a little. Its got me kind of worried. She is 9 months old and nice and fat. I always have a calcium dish in the enclosure and dust the mealworms occasionaly. Feed-back much apreciated

I have one that does that also. I bought her from snake broker. I asked them about it and they "Have no clue". She does it just like you say with your. Where might have you got her from? I have miner-all in serenitys tank and all. I have only had her for about 2 weeks. She is 4 months old. I am worrying about her too. Try to feed her more calcium. Dust every amount of food you give your leo. See if that will help. Also check www.drgecko.com is if thathelps.

Hope your leo is ok.
