Stick tail- caused by the parasite Cryptosporidium varanae, is a deadly, and extremely contagious parasite with no cure. Symptoms are a tail that is so skinny it looks like a twig, body will be emaciated, diarrhea, spending time in cold side of tank and will not use heat mat, visible white spots on liver through belly skin, and loss of apatite. If you think your gecko has stick tail bring your gecko to the vet and get it tested for the parasite. If it turns up positive have your gecko  humanely euthanized. There in so cure and your gecko will slowly and painfully die.

Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.” So God created mankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.” Genesis 1:26-28
