    RIP Oedura marmorata

    Anyone read the paper on the split? I skimmed through it and it seemed interesting, however still waiting on the NT Marms/Gemmata being split, can't wait to see how that goes. What is going to happen to Marms in captivity?

    Gecko paralyzed?

    My marbled velvet gecko doesn't seem to be able to move his back legs or tail, I've tried soaking him in warm water to see if he's impacted, but nothing happened. He seems fine otherwise, alert and trying to run and climb. Don't know what to do now, anyone know what may be wrong?
