Hachuu the second.

Unfortunately Hachuu died. At least I think he did. His right eye started swelling like crazy and it was pretty obvious that he lost sight with it. Since he wouldn’t eat I took him to the vet who discovered that his other eye also wasn’t working anymore. Being blind, he couldn’t see any of the crickets I gave him. The vet kindly agreed to find a home for him since I can’t hand feed him for the rest of his life or afford the surgery to get his right eye removed.
A few weeks later I got a sympathy card about the death of my beloved pet, so I conclude he didn’t make it. I know that two more out of the four at the pet store died there, so they probably came in with something bad. Poor fellow.
When we can afford it I’d really like a Crested Gecko. They don’t require special heating or humidity and are pretty mellow yet active. Yay!
