[gecko]Bad Shed, Part II

[Chris Schweitzer]

Elizabeth,

    Yes, the humidity box was at 92 degrees and 90% humidity.  I may try 
rubbing the toes in a day or two if I don't see any improvement on its 
own.  She is back in her cage where the roughest thing is cork bark, 
though I suppose I could put in a piece of sandstone.  The reason she 
had a bad shed is from the recent power outage.  I am in Redmond, my 
power was out for 5 days.  After two days of trying to keep them warm 
with heat packs, I boxed up the geckos and took them to my office 
manager's house, but they got a little dry after a couple days.  Not a 
problem for the /Coleonyx/, /Tarentola/, or even my Crestie, but the 
/vittatus /do like their humidity. And of course the cold and the 
handling probably didn't help either.  At any rate they all seem to be 
doing fine except for this one problem.
    I actually met you a few times at NWCBE,  saw you there with your 
/L. lugubris/ and your /Oedura/.  I am always annoyed at how few geckos 
are represented, seems like it's mostly about the snakes.  I know 
there's a Frog Fest here each year, wouldn't mind seeing Gecko Fest as 
well.  That would be cool! :)
