  • do adults about 2yrs shed

  • @kittycatgibson they all shed.

  • I'm glad I saw this video, I was worrying about my recently acquired geckos who have been staying on the bottom of their tanks mostly since I got them. I've noticed they've had some bit of grayish-white coloration in the crease of the arms though like you've shown, not so much wrinkling yet. So I guess I'll give it a couple more days before I get really worried about it. Is it common for them not to really eat when they're about to shed as well?

  • @misstwib Yes, mine seem to not eat the days before shedding, generally. Keep in mind the "grey" skin under their arms can also just be an area that isn't hit by light, so it doesn't "fire up" - and a lack of movement on newly-acquired animals can mean they're still in the settling-in phase where they are nervous in new environments.

  • Hi I relay need help with my two male geckos one is like 2 years and the other is almost 1 year but they are not growing very much and the baby has not gotten much bigger. What do i do to get them to eat more?

  • @420bigtoakley420 What are ya feeding, and how do you keep them? They're in separate enclosures right?

  • @Hadsatriani She only does this when she sheds? Perhaps the skin on her eyes is getting in the way of seeing well and she is frightened by movement? Other than that, I have not witnessed the 'flipping around like crazy' myself :/

  • Hey cool video! question my crested gecko when sheads for some reason flips around like crazy! you would think it was dying is this normal? also it trys to bite you if your near her any help will most definatly be appericiated! thank you.
