Question
My geckos tail fell off, what should i do? Is he going to die?

Answer
Hi Ashley,

in most cases no he wont die, the tail will grow back but will be dark in color most of the time blackish or dark  brown, what type of gecko is it? and about how old?if you have any more concerns or questions let me know, also watch the tail for infection and if possible keep it as clean as you can but you shouldnt have to take any speacual care time will heel it.

                     thanks for the question
