That is the gess I was about to make;) Poor litle critter:( That "#$%&":irked: petco!

Great minds think alike!
Once you nourish this guy back to health you're going to have a new favorite pet!
 
i saw him take a criket today and i went to the store and mashed up some papaya + calcium carbonate idk if he'll eat the fruit but he is always after crickets he should be doing good soon enough
 
none of the herps at our petco ever look bad and the cages are kept well too,but I here lots of stories of other petcos.That guy you got looks bad enough to be embarasing to sell.Hope it makes it,good luck and good save.Im not sure how this type is at recovering.Seems you found some good ppl to help you.Good luck.

Some waxworms would be great:D
 
When he gets a little fatter try feeding some grasshoppers. Mine loves them!!! They have a lot of protien and make for great entertainment, lots of jumping from gecko and prey. Just make sure no one close by uses pesticide.
 
yeah bought some wax worms and put them in an extra cresty feeding station so i hope he get to them
 
Or you can buy grasshoppers at most shops that carry reptiles 99% pesticide free :P Looks like anStandingi to me too.

They don't sell grasshoppers/locusts as feeders here in the US. At least I'm pretty sure they don't.
