Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Dont know what to do about new gecko losing his tail
Please help!! My son just received a second leopard gecko from a friend of mine a week ago and has been living, i assumed just fine with the other leopard gecko we have. The new gecko is older and larger but tonight his tail came off and I'm not sure why or how to care for it or what will happen next. Do I remove him from the other gecko and get a second cage? Will the tail grow back? Is the new one sick??? Please help!!!

IF both are males, they may well be fighting in which case you will need a second cage.
There are a lot of reasons it may be missing if both are not males.
The other one going for food and biting the tail by mistake, getting stuck in something, fear, even stress.
If the gecko was healthy to begin with you don't need to do anything for it. They are capable of healing themselves. It will never look as good as the original or have the same shape but the lizard should be just fine.
If you could post pics, especially of the vents , that would be helpful too.
