:wave: Hello, I am considering a new pet later this year. My hubby has offered to buy me a Leopard Gecko for my birthday.

We already have lots of reps - royal python, bearded dragon, chile rose tarantula, kenyan sand boa, western hognose, hypo cornsnake and apricot pueblan milk snake. However, I am mindful that we are not experts, and that each species is different.

I have done some research on the net, and priced up the equipment required.

Any keepers on here that can give me some advice and tips on caring for a leo?

Thanks:thumbsup:

simple.
most people use a heat mat with a stat and heat half..

a hide. and a damp box for shedding. and water

a bowl of calcium powder and normal vits like your BD has...

i would get a couple of females...

i have kept them in many diff size vivs, upto 6' in colonies
