That was really good of the people to rescue the leopard geckos. I am impressed that they also incubated the rescued eggs.
It gives the babies a chance at life. I am sure Jamie will do well with you. You couldn't resist the little one with the bent tail could you? The damaged ones are the ones that need us most.
I actually didn't know his tail was kinked until I got him. I saw his pattern and picked him for that. His tail was curved in the picture but I didnt think about asking about it. Once he started walking around is when I noticed. I looked it up. The kink is a result in fluctuating incubation temperatures. Which makes since with him being rescued. There's no telling how long his egg was sitting in the incubation box before being rescued and incubated. He's fine otherwise. We gave him meal worms last night and checked this morning. He had gobbled them all up. He hides mostly but last night we caught him walking around once the lights were out. I think he's going to do great. The guy, let's call him Sean, said he's a big eater so when I saw his meal worm bowl empty I knew he was going to do great.
I'm excited to watch him grow. Even Jack wasn't this small when I got him. He grew maybe a little bit longer but mostly filled out. And Claire was full grown. So this is really the first BABY gecko.
