..this evening, during my geckos feeeding section,i has see a bobble under arms in my "mistake"...
i try to tuch it and i don't think is an infection (because is really soft and i don't think thare are some liquid inside)..
she eat, run and do everyting like always..she don't look "skinny"
my boyfriend came back tomorrow night and the vet in front of my house don't know nothing about geckos...i need to go to dallas (and i don't have the car)
..some of you have any idea about what can be? :main_huh:

i know im new and all, but i swear i read something that sometimes fat buildups can be under arms like that... DO NOT TAKE MY ADVICE THOUGH!

 

[marula]

..i never see something like this...(and is not my first leo!)
...but she eat like a big pig!...i hope is this the problem...

 

[Bert-N-Sheila]

like this kind of?

"Sometimes people get confused with fat pockets and lymphatic calcium fluid that builds up on the sides, and especially around the armpits, of some geckos. What your photos look like to me is subcutaneous lymphatic fluid, which means your gecko has an excess of calcium building up and it is draining into the tissues. It's nothing to worry about, but I'd cut down on her calcium for a couple of weeks to see if it goes away." - goldengategeckos said that

:main_yes: they look the same!
....strange...i only change the way to give her calcium..i leave generally a little dish in the tank..but last week i put some calcium in the dish with mealies....probably she eat too much calcium with them?
THANKS!...

 

[Bert-N-Sheila]

i couldnt tell you... but i must admit, it looks the same and sounds the same. so hopefully that is comforting. especially if she is acting normal and eating normal. maybe take the advice of slowing down calcium for a bit? (last week i started to put some calcium in the dish also for our 3 year old, maybe he'll react the same...)

Nothing at all to worry about! It seems to me that females are more prone to getting these.

 

[marula]

..thanks guys...VERY MUCH...

 

[eyelids]

Yeah nothing to worry about. Several of females have them. They seem to come and go.

It's nothing to get real concerned about.
