Question.
My gecko seems to be having trouble sticking to things. He will go part way up the glass and his plastics plants then slide off.
Is he going to shed or is something wrong with the little fellow?
Thanks!
Mike

Re: Question.
Sounds like he is ready to shed to me....give him a few days and see if he does not have his gecko glue back

Re: Question.
Thanks for the link, and I hope he is just about to shed. Don't want anything to be wrong with this little fellow. Spraying more almost makes it look harder for him to climb? Maybe thats just me.

Re: Question.
yep, he probably just needs to shed. mist him a little extra for the next few days and see if that does the trick.

Re: Question.
Well he was looking rather wrinkly tonight so I made sure he was well hydrated shut of the lights except the little night glow light he has set on low.
And he is shedding!! I was getting worried.
Thanks everyone for the help.

Re: Question.
no worries, i'm sure he'll have his sticky back as soon as he gets that old skin off.
