Comments: Got her from Markheims pet store in Amherst, NY. 2 months after having her she had a very weird episode. I really believed she was going to die, I went to check on her like what I do with all my other geckos. and she was very stiff but had her head up.. so i gently picked her up and she opened her mouth as if she was gasping for air and all of a sudden she lost all control of muscles and became so stiff her arms and legs were against her tummy.. I seen her struggling. seemed like she was gasping for air and her chest seemed to only expand a few times a minute.. I held her for 20 minutes.. I really thought she was going to die.. But she eats like crazy, loves drinking the misty water and is always exploring in her cage. I was gently rubbing her belly and seen her open her mouth and seemed like she was trying to take a deep breath so I gently blew some air in her mouth like a foot away from her mouth because I know their lungs are small.. Then i put her back in her cage and didnt seem to look any better.. 20 minutes I checked back and she seemed to take a few steps but was still weak and her head was down.. I was worried.. i dropped a few water droplets near her and went to bed hoping for the best.. Hope up and she is on a sick, hiding in the leaves.. She seems normal and seemed to eat some her her CGD that night.. What the heck happened to her? Have this ever happened to you? I seriously believe it was a miracle<3 I just hope that she doesnt have another episode like this.. it looked to life threatening
