Adopted new leopard gecko today

Went to a local pet store to get a few things and came across this one that someone had dropped off to them that is on deaths door. Sadly this one is really gonna take some TLC to get it back on its feet well. the tail is super thing and you can see just about all of its skeletal structure...

Wasnt planning on getting a new pet yet but for some reason I seem to be a magnet for sick leopard geckos and bringing them back.

Good luck with the little fella, keep us posted! Good for you, too...hopefully you can help him along.

Thanks I have done it before for with 2 others so it shouldnt be too terrible this one isnt the worst i have seen before... but still not that far off from it either.

Good luck, I hope you fatten it up in no time :)

well I think this post is rather pointless without a picture!;)
before and afters are very cool in rehab cases.
And bless your heart for saving him from a pet store setting. good luck with him!

Thanks i have a pic already for the before. i was gonna wait until "after" to post up the set but i guess there is no harm in posting it now.

Good luck dude. A guy on our South African forum got two geckos from a breeder and they had none disease and he had to feed them slurry, it took like 5 months for them to come right!

Just a quick update, Gecko is eating and looks like there is a bit more life back in it not much but its there. I will post pics soon so you can see where my starting point is. Still grim, but im hopeful.
