I have owned a number of critters in the reptile world growing up. I currently do not have any. The last species I cared for were leopard geckos. They were given to me through a friend of a friend. She had not been caring for them properly. There was three in total and one had her eye completely shut and crusted over. It took some time and learning some skills to get the skin removed but I eventually did and thankfully, the eyes was undamaged!
