new gecko
by daddycline Tue Dec 27, 2011 10:53 am
So...... I got a 20 long critter cage from my wife and kids for christmas. went to store today to get some things for it, uth and stuff and found a beautiful leo. needless to say we got it and all other supplies. yaaaaaayyyyyy im a leo owner finally. will post pics in a couple days. Not very good with morphs but it could be a hypo tangerine jungle.???

Absolutely, the people here are a huge help. Just fed him/her for the first time and he/she ate like 10 mealworms, not bad for the second night with me i think, will also let me handle her already(dont know why but i want to call it a she).

hi I am james. She may not fully tame yet as she still look quite young, my leo was not tame at all when I got her but I am now able to pick her up and hold her with out her minding. leos take a few days or perhaps a bit longer to settle in to their new environment/surroundings that's probably why she may not be eating. given time she will start to explore and get used to her new home. from the photo it looks like you have her on reptile carpet which I am afraid is a bad choice leos can get their claws stuck in it and their teeth whilst hunting also it's like a breeding ground for bacteria and its hard to clean completely if you read this it gives you examples of good substrates for your viv http://www.leopardgeckoforum.com/t166-proper-housing-for-leopard-geckos
