Bibron08 View Profile	Bibron Gecko Health is Bad i have a bibron gecko i’ve had her about a month now and things started good but are steadily going bad. first thing about a week ago i was cleaning her cage and about half her tail fell off in my hand, i didn’t have her by the tail but she let it go anyway, second i’ve noticed that her toes are bending upwards and she hasn’t been able to climb the sides of her tank she just falls off when she tries. and now the 3rd problem ever since i’ve bought her i’ve bought a dozen crickets at a time and they would be gone in a few days. now i can understand maybe it’s because of her tail falling off but the same crickets have been in there for about 5 days now and maybe 3 left alive and another 5 or 6 dead that i’ve pulled out of her tank so her desire to eat has apparently vanished. Now as for her tank, i clean it fully 2x a month but spot cleaning about 1-2 times a week. i change her water everyday, i have cypress bed as a substrate, she has a hot end and cool end she’s in a 10gal tank i have a heat lamp as well as a 75watt night glow bulb thats supposed to replace moonlight. i dust her crickets with vit/cal everytime i feed her, she has tree limbs to climb on, she has a hide-out dome that she spend most the day in. i keep the temps around 75-85 day and 65-75 night humidity usually stays between 55-65 day but raises to 60-70 night. i have a heat rock as well, well thats about it. if anyone can provide me with some answers or suggestions mostly with her toes and how to maybe get her back to climbing the tank. well thanks for reading i hope you can help
