gecko rescued looking not great but no to bad condition from premises where husbandry was minimum to bad
vet appointment booked as usual gecko placed in quarantine and given correct enviroment and supplements.
VERY quickly the gecko showed signs of deterioration and vet appointment brought forward as emergency.
within three weeks the back legs looked like they could swivel and the spine had curved.
x ray showed multiple fractures all over the body of the gecko.the fact the deterioration happened so quickly was because proper husbandry was in place and actually speeded up the problems that had been kept at bay with sub optimal conditions.
the gecko was put to sleep so no more suffering

Sorry to hear about the gecko, yer unfortunatly not all can be rescued. Weve had some same as soon as they got proper care they failed very quick as they couldnt handle it. Its so sad to see. x

Thumbs up Great thread Toxic. x
Its sad that alot of rep owners will at some point come across MBD even if you do everything right by your rep as said if the parent had it, it will be passed down.

MBD is not nice as myself and fran have been battling against it in our Water Dragons am sorry Fran yours has lost the fight bless her.

Its not nice to see your rep go down hill but at least with this thread people will no the tell tale signs so they can do what they need to, to control it.

To Toxic Siren x
