potential problems
i have had this leo for 5 months now and i think she was approx 2-3 months old when i got her. if you look in the pictures especially the second one, you can see around her mouth that it is wet or shiny. What would this be caused by besides water, it seems her mouth is always wet to a certain degree, should i be worried at all? This has been like this for some while. She is eating fine and doing everything else fine. Never had a problem with any of the sheds or anything like that. Anyone have any suggestions or is it nothing to worry about.
Thanks in advance.
Nick

She looks like a very healthy little girl! LOL I just call it gecko makeup. They always look like they are wearing eye shadow and lip gloss

very healty looking gecko.
Gecko do have saliva, it help to get the pray down
sometime when they miss and grap the paper towel, it let a very
wet spot. So it's only salive
