i ve got 3 baby Leopard Geckos and had them for the last month and a half. 2 of them are growing well and look well but the 3rd still looks like a baby and is so skinny and the tail is so skinny 2. i ve tried feeding it by hand and paying it special attention but its no good. what shall I do? anyone help?

Hello,

Welcome to HC. Are they all being housed together? What size enclosure are you using?

__________________

thanks, yeah they are housed together, lenght is 42" and width is 15" so its a fairly big vav. i'll try and put pics on for you

I would suggest housing the small one in a separate enclosure so it doesn't have to compete for food.

thanks for the advise so far people

Yes I would definitely seperate them and have a look at our caresheet:

Leopard Gecko Caresheet Index (Eublepharis macularius)

You might not want to use sand with geckos who are still so small...
