Re:
Wow. Little one, I think you need to take a step back here and look at the big picture. Everybody on this forum is not trying to "kill" you gecko at all! We are all here with the best of intentions in mind. However, I would recommend that you take your gecko to the vet where a certified vet can tell you what the prolapse is. On the otherhand there are more than a couple vet technicians who are heavily involved in the herping community who post on this forum and you might want to atleast take their oppinion into consideration as I believe that you only aquired your first gecko in May and dont have the experience or knowledge to diagnose animals yourself. Now, just to make myself clear I am in no way, shape or form calling you insuffient, unknowledgable or incapable of anything, I am merely stating that you are not a vet nor are qualified to make diagnosis yourself. And in my opionion looking at those photos it looks to be a hemipenial prolapse. I have had one qecko who has prolapses a couple of times and I always soak him in warm water with a tablespoon of EPSON salt(must be EPSON or you will pickle your geckos testicles!!) Now, in regards to taking Christine's advice, that is completely your choice, but why not take the advice of caring herpers and QUALIFIED VETS than somebody who struggles to care for herps that are on the brinks of death. Take a look at the photos that Deb is going to post for you to see. Chrisine has good intentions but does not have the knowledge, capacity or patients to deal with the herps that she has. And if I were you I would take a pop down to the RRR and see for yourself and take a look first hand at all the suffering animals that unfortunely call that place home. JMHO.
