I have a Whites that is about 5 now. He seems very happy and is eating.

He is very thin - I can see his hip bones through his skin.

I was feeding 5-6 crickets at a time but have stopped because one night about three months ago, his "inards" (for lack of a better word) came out through his rear.

It was very scary and we thought he would not make it. There were some articles online, that said this was a result of overfeeding and that most whites die from this.

We kept misting it and turned off his lights, a couple of hours later it had pulled back into his body and he was fine.

We felt very fortunate and since then, only feed about 4 crickets at a time for fear that it may happen again and we won't be so lucky.

He always eats his crickets as soon as we feed him but he is very thin and we are worried. I have called a vet and am bringing a stool sample in to be examined tomorrow to rule out any sort of bacteria/parasite.

I bought a product today called Flukers Reptaboost. It's a nutritional supplement for reptiles and amphibians. He takes it well and I am hoping this will help him gain some weight.

ANY and ALL advice would be greatly appreciated. I simply adore him.
