Awww and what a cutie he is Very Happy

We always keep a humidity box in with our Geko's and whenever we haven't they seem to have had trouble shedding on their toes

Here are a couple more pics that I have just taken. (I borrowed my mums cam) Now you can see his arm better.

Yeah it's a shame... the yound guy who brought him simply wasn't given the right info on how to look after him.

Denise that arm looks like he is going to keep it?, pity bout the toes though, the extremeties are the first to go . But he is looking good!

I looked and thought he was going to lose his arm, too. Best of luck with that one.

He does look like the arm is saved, but at the expense of his fingers obviously. There does appear to be a small lump at the back of where the band was, so unsure if that is just scar tissue or not. It looks ok in colour so will see how that goes.

I'm glad to hear your gecko had such a wonderful recovery from his leg and shed!
