Joules's Story

Joules the gecko was surrendered because his owners were overwhelmed with his care. He was having shedding issues which had blossomed into retained eye caps and eye infections, which lead to inappetence. This is a pretty common problem with Leopard geckos and is best prevented by frequent soaks and ensuring that shedding has been completed. With some meds, soaks and supportive care, he is back to functioning like a normal gecko and loves eating again. At this time he needs no extra care but his adopter should make sure he is shedding completely to avoid him getting sick again. He is used to eating super mealworms but we can occasionally get him to eat a dubia roach!https://www.lostwoodsas.com/adoption-application

Lost Woods Animal Sanctuary's Adoption Policy
Adopters first fill out an application on our website, which asks about the adopter's household, how they plan on housing their new pet and what they plan on feeding. Because exotics have very species-specific housing and dietary needs, we have a director reach out to each adopter to discuss proper housing, diet and husbandry, as well as lifespan and handling. Adopters can choose to schedule a meet-and-greet with the animal or adopt without a meet. We need to receive a picture of the enclosure when it is ready, and when the enclosure and the adopter are ready, we schedule the adoption. Our adoption fees are set to be comparable to the animal's price at a pet store. Adopters sign a contract certifying that if they can no longer care for the animal, they must return them to Lost Woods. When adopting bonded pairs/groups, each bondmate is half fee. Fees: Rabbit, chinchilla, or tortoise $100 Bearded dragon or degu $50 Guinea pig $40 pair $30 single Leopard gecko $30 Rat, hamster, or gerbil $20 Mouse $15
