Deep sleep gecko

[BryanB]

Domino was sleeping in the oddest position all day today on the front glass of his enclosure. Dose anyone else have anything that will sleep like this.

I'd be extremely careful letting him sleep like that, mines been upside down and hasn't had their tail do that, be very wary of floppy rail syndrome Iirc it can cause serious issues.

Good thing you got pictures lol

What should I do say no bad gecko before I got to work in the morning?

While it does look funny, his tail should definitely not be like that. If you see him sleeping like that be sure to move him, looks like he has the beginning of floppy tail syndrome, which can be caused by sleeping upside-down and vertical like that. If allowed to continue, he will lose his tail.

I moved my gecko, it's not hard, you just pick them up and put them somewhere else in the enclosure, mine got comfy again right where I put her.

"A tail which is bent near the vent to one side, or up over the gecko's body, is called "floppy tail syndrome" (sometimes "FTS" on various internet forums). Formerly thought to be caused by a diet lacking in calcium, it is now generally believed that floppy tail is brought on instead by geckos sleeping face-down on branches or enclosure surfaces so their tail will flop over their heads, or perhaps a weakness in the genetic line compounded with sleeping face-down. While this is now not thought to be an indication of poor health, it can lead to hip problems. If you find your gecko is sleeping upside-down often, try lifting it off of the surface it's on and setting it on a more horizontal surface. Also, always make sure your gecko has plenty of items in its enclosure for its tail to wrap around as it sleeps."
