This is amazing to see her survive. And to see her with a little amounts of energy just takes my breath away. I'm so glad shes with you. This whole thing is utterly heartbreaking. But now, she has more than a chance to live. Thank you so much for sharing this with us
I can't imagine how tired she is from being this close to death. This is why I love animals more than people . They are always there for you no matter what as long as we give them what they need . 😌 I'm praying for you little girl you are just bones . 😢😢
She is AMAZING!! It’s her attitude that has kept her going this long... thank you for giving her the support she needs to recover. And thank everyone who has sent her positive energy. It seems like we have all contributed to her rescue and recovery.
From a mama of two beautiful Leo's one being a rescue. Thank you so much for the love and care you are showing this little girl. She's a fighter for sure!!!!
Not a reptile person but can tell she was neglected/starved. Very cruel! I was watching guinea pig rescues & somehow ended up on your channel. Stayed up waaay too late watching your videos...you are passionate & compassionate. I don't understand why you would be flagged on Craigslist. I only flag breeders. Don't give up. The world is a better place filled with people like you
My mother hates reptile but if i forgot to feed my pet she ll scream at me and told me to be responsible,the one who had this gecko before.. wow how could u treat the gecko to the point his body just bone and skin
We don't know the circumstances, maybe they just didn't know how to help her. There could be language barriers, maybe she got sick and deteriorated fast and the owner just didn't have the knowledge. The real sin is the uneducated sale of these creatures.
Thank you for not only rescuing reptiles but also sharing it with us! These videos are so important for the reptile community to see! You are helping reptiles all over the world with each video like this you post and that is amazing! You should be so proud 🖤🧡
I'm so glad to see how this little leopard gecko is surviving despite how bad her condition was. I just want to say thank you for caring for those who can't speak for themselves! I'm rooting for you and all the animals in your care. 💕
Yeah, I have. It’s sad that people can let it go for so long and then give it to someone just to struggle to try to save it. At least she died peacefully.
Reptiles are real good to remember the bond they shared with you knowing that you were caring for them. And they will continue to honor that even when they get well as long as you honor it too.
I wonder if the people that dropped her off to you, are watching your videos. I hope they do and that could either be a positive thing or a negative thing according to their state of mind. I know God has a special place in heaven for you and your tender heart with these small animals❣️
Your an amazing human being brought tears to a grown women's eyes. I can really tell you care poor little baby my leopard baby dropped her tail today. So very very sad but besides strong lil baby
I don't wanna seem like an ass. I've been following this story since I found you, but i think your videos might have some distance between audio and video, is it the camera? Or did it happen during editing or from uploading it?
The gecko is so cute!❤i have a leopard gecko named anne and she lives in a ten gal tank since my parents don't have the money to afford a bigger tank but she is still healthy!❤😘
For humans, we often have to worry about refeeding syndrome when feeding/rehydrating someone that have undergone severe starvation and malnutrition. Does this also apply for repiles as well?
I just found your channel, I love geckos, when we lived i new mexico they would sun on our patio. One morning a gecko had got stuck on our patio, and my cats were freaking out, they wanted that gecko, until opened the patio door,they ran a d hide der the bed, I laughed so hard!!! I would like to do to those that abuse animals, any animal, the same way they treated their animal.
@@unfortunately_fortunate2000 how do you even know? Most people only saw the first one or the last one since the last one was randomly recommended to people so it’s not oBvIoUs, also the person could’ve been interested and then forget about it I mean it happens.
It’s amazing what your doing for her and for the other reptile you take care of you have a huge heart thank you for all that you do I do not understand how people can do this why didn’t they feed her I have a rescue leopard gecko the guy hadn’t fed her in a few months he said the pet store near his house closed I was shocked was it to hard to go to another pet store to buy crickets or order online
Poor sweet thing. Thank you for the updates. You should name her. She deserves a name. Hope all your other animal friends are doing well. Hope to see updates on them soon to.
What’s the recommended variety of foods for Western Banded Geckos? (They eat very similarly to leopard geckos from what I’ve seem but you seem to know what’s up so I want to be sure)
I'm kinda in this situation but the leopard gecko that was handed to me the tail at the very end is clear looks like tail rot except it's completely clear if you have any info that would be amazing . I got this gecko opening her mouth and eating wax worms w rep vit and calcium powder and drinking now.
I hope you see this comment, but I’d like to get some help if you have an Instagram or something where I can DM you. I’m a vet tech but don’t really deal with exotics much. I recently took in my sister’s leopard gecko since she couldn’t take him to college. I could tell right away that something was wrong cause he was so lethargic and didn’t move, wouldn’t eat/drink. I did some research and have been trying to nurse him back to health. He has severe MBD. She was only feeding him freeze dried mealworms, no live insects, no calcium, no vitamins or proper nutrients. I have gotten him to eat some live crickets and waxworms with calcium, but then he stopped eating again. I’m syringe feeding him now with Reptaboost which he’s taking well. He won’t drink water on his own though, and I have some other concerns I’d like to get your opinion on. Unfortunately, none of the vets I work with are too knowledgeable on reptiles so I can’t ask them.
Is it a possibility that giving her 4 drops when only up to 2 was recommended for under 25 pounds could have triggered something causing her death? she didn’t gain 15 pounds in 2 days to be dosed up 2 drops or is there another reason you gave her more?
@@Animal1Guy I was watching and saw in video 4. I’m so sick and worried right now earlier at vet I seemed to get high hopes. Brought home and followed instruction to give the dog food but very weak
You also gotta be careful with this level of starvation... feeding too much can be a bad thing. Its that way with dogs and horses... gotta feed em small and then work up to larger meals. Really sorry she didn't make it though... this condition makes them so delicate and really it can go either way. At least she had you, and you did what you could for her.
I feed my leopard gecko mealworms and crickets and I keep her water bowl filled with water and I keep her High clean if I'm not doing it right please leave a comment and let me know
Can we not have legal action taken. In UK certainly we would. Look at our news. A footballer kicked his cat , someone videodedit uma a footballer i the UK was fined his salary Why are these people not prosecuted........
I think the saddest rescues I’ve ever seen are the ones where the person genuinely means well, but they fail to research their pet properly, so you end up with… stuff like this…
Hello..... Would you be willing to h3lp me??? Please would you do something like video call with me so I can show you what I'm talking about... I'm trying to save her life! I took her from Petco cuz she was in such bad shape. Her arms and legs are bending really weird, she has malnutrition very bad & she is partly blind they told me. I have only got her to eat 2 wax worms & that's is, she was also licking up some calcium that I dropped in her enclosure. I am very worried for her. Please get back to me, I know I'm commenting on an all the video of yours but please Help me.
Were you still just feeding the vitamin water slur? That's too many vitamins to ingest daily. You could of OD'd her. You should of done 1 full day of vitamins and then went straight to bug smoothies then back to vitamins every week, then gradually every other week. Too many vitamins could actually block the system from processing anything.
So sad that she passed away.. sadly a lot of the time when an animal is in this condition not even the best of care can save them..
Yea unfortunately the asshole that surrendered her didn't want to do so sooner...
Oh no :(
She tried so very hard. She was so pretty.
This is amazing to see her survive. And to see her with a little amounts of energy just takes my breath away. I'm so glad shes with you. This whole thing is utterly heartbreaking. But now, she has more than a chance to live. Thank you so much for sharing this with us
she passed away today
Sadly she passed whacht part 3
I can't imagine how tired she is from being this close to death. This is why I love animals more than people . They are always there for you no matter what as long as we give them what they need . 😌 I'm praying for you little girl you are just bones . 😢😢
unfortunately the little lady passed away two months ago, may she rest in peace.
Yea..she did..sadly.
She is AMAZING!! It’s her attitude that has kept her going this long... thank you for giving her the support she needs to recover. And thank everyone who has sent her positive energy. It seems like we have all contributed to her rescue and recovery.
Her- * cricket sounds *
(I know she appreciates it. I wish I could be there check on her, and make sure she was alright)
Lizard of Oz she unfortunately passed :/
@Coweenuh M- I know. :(
Hearing you talk about her healing before my heart. Rest In Peace baby. I’m so sorry your life was I’m unbelievably cruel

I'm so happy she made it thru another night! My heart sank when I saw the notification because I thought she passed. I'm rooting for her💛
She did pass :(
This particular comment didnt age well
She's gone but not forgotten. RIP sweet girl.
You can hear in his voice how painful this is for him :( I'm in tears
I don't think she could be any more precious! Please keep the updates coming! May the Gods Bless! 💙🌻
She died
You can see a little difference in her coloration and perky-ness in just 3 days
@Makaveli not well at all
For sure

She definitely seems to be peeking up already. I’m glad to see her have her will you fight and live still. That’s so encouraging.

She passed away
The best part is that she doesn’t even fight the syringe anymore
Idk if you’ve seen the recent update of this since your comment came after the fact but let’s just say... she can’t fight the syringe anymore 😭 🦎
Yeah, I have. It’s sad that people can let it go for so long and then give it to someone just to struggle to try to save it. At least she died peacefully.
@Lizard of Oz
yeah, they’re so evil :( also I like your name, it’s clever.
It's 12am midnight on a Saturday and here I am. Flood gates have opened. Rip sunshine. Thank you for showing her love in her last days. Heartbreaking
Thank You
Reptiles are real good to remember the bond they shared with you knowing that you were caring for them. And they will continue to honor that even when they get well as long as you honor it too.
Utterly heartbreaking, it was so clear how much she wanted to live 😔
i know
Thanks again for the update...she’s coming along 💕🙏🏻
i never seen such a thin gecko omg... there is nothing left in her tail!
I wonder if the people that dropped her off to you, are watching your videos. I hope they do and that could either be a positive thing or a negative thing according to their state of mind. I know God has a special place in heaven for you and your tender heart with these small animals❣️
Seeing this little Gecko, have made my eyes watering up since the first day.
Thank you for all you do!
Your an amazing human being brought tears to a grown women's eyes. I can really tell you care poor little baby my leopard baby dropped her tail today. So very very sad but besides strong lil baby
Thank you for trying so hard to keep the leopard gecko a better chance at good life. I have a leopard gecko so this just breaks my heart.
I’m so sorry you lost her.
Beautiful girl, I'm happy she is still wanting to eat I cant wait to see her next video

Are geckos able to breathe when they're turned over? I've heard about it suffocating bearded dragons and frogs before.
Run in paradise lovely lady 😢
My leopard gecko doesn’t like crickets, she likes meal worms but she LOVES wax worms lol. She’s an addict for wax worms.
lol nice
Don’t feed her wax worms too much though because I believe they’re meant to be treats? Please correct me if I’m wrong.
ik this is 2 years later but this is soo sad
So what happened to her in the end, over these past 3 years?
maybe update every other day not a week i am looking forward to seeing them pretty eyes open looking at us lol
They won’t be opening anymore my friend.

Her name is dead
:Giza: [TLK] 🤡
@@mariah.716 stop bro I just laughed when this story is supposed to be 😞😂
Is all geckos not need uv light?
I dont know about all of them
Can you give antibiotics to lizards, and would that have saved her? Also, would a small soak in a bath have worked to rehydrate her?
Sorry you lost her I have one that has developed a blue spot on her belly looks just like that that's not normal right ?
I wouldnt know from just a comment sorry
Do you feel she is septic because of the dying fingers?
So sorry 😢
I love your heart!
My leo hates mealworms XD
But she loves dubia roaches, so it works out lol
YAY! I'm excited to see how well she'll do in a week! Let's give her a name! What were you thinking? :P
:( darnit this didnt age well
I love/hate these comments so much 😔
@@depressedteadepressoespres186 Yeah I sobbed when I found out :( I was getting my hopes up real high.
@Rachel Wings 😭 yeah, sadly I saw that video first, now I’m just here to see what happened to lead up to that sad day 😭 😭 😭
I don’t know if I can wait a week for the next update. I worry between updates.
Any Updates?
Can they eat isopods?
What’s the recommended variety of foods for Western Banded Geckos? (They eat very similarly to leopard geckos from what I’ve seem but you seem to know what’s up so I want to be sure)
mix of bugs!

She was just too far gone. Organ failure at that point of starvation, you don't come back from that.

Great man.....
God is good and he loves you
When you hold a leopard gecko upside down it can’t breathe because they lack a diaphragm.. so try not to do that too much.
I this video she is moving did she die?
she does end up dying sadly

May I ask why you never took her to the vet?
she was so thin, there was nothing they would do differently other then out her down.
Speaking of geckos dying My echo is going to die Because it has a Calcium problem And it's not healthy
omg how the hell he held so long as he did? So sad...
Can we not have legal action taken. In UK certainly we would. Look at our news. A footballer kicked his cat , someone videodedit
