I've rescued a Leo about a month or so ago from a friend of a friend and he's ~13 years old. He seems okay in himself other than being a grumpy old man who still isn't completely convinced that he likes me. He already is missing quite a few toes, or at least the tips of most of them as they look quite stumpy and have no claws.

Hi guys, I am in need of advice for my 3-year old leopard gecko. About 2 months ago, I noticed that he was having issues shedding and one of his toes was turning black from stuck shed, so I took him to the vet. The vet gave him some cream and antibiotics, the toe was saved, and I took him in for a re check. At the recheck, the vet said that he had mouth rot (probably the result of the infection spreading?) and prescribed more antibiotics. Fast forward 3 weeks later, I take my gecko in again...
