Just finished re-doing both of my Leopard Gecko tanks. I've been playing with the styrofoam/grout method of building hides and backgrounds and am still learning. I am moving onto my snake tanks now, but will probably come back to the gecko tanks in awhile to do more. Both are 20 gal long...

This is really fun looking! I may show this to my (human) kids and see if they want to come up with something for the Leos. They (human kids) don't play with the legos anymore so I'm sure they would be willing to donate them to the geckos!

Can anyone help me on this? She is getting worse. She can no longer use her rear legs and has gotten really dull and looks like she is shedding again. When we touch her she seems to be in alot of pain. Also, she is still moving herself around the cage, but seems like she is in alot of pain...

One of my geckos just hasn't been acting herself. All 3 of our girls have slowed down their eating in the last few months, but the other 2 look excellent. This one's tail has gotten much smaller. She had a hard time shedding on her own and we had to do it for her. She's still been moving...

One of our geckos hasn't been acting quite herself. She is still moving around from spot to spot, but she just hasn't seemed as lively. She was looking really pale two days ago and yesterday morning started to shed, she still hasn't finished shedding, usually it's over by now. Last night we...

To heat our 20 gal. long tank for our geckos I currently have a UTH and a heat lamp. We keep our house really cool in the winter so both were on all the time to keep a temp around 90 on the warm side in the day and around 80 at night. Now that the weather has warmed up I've stopped using the...

I just LOVE Tuesdays! On Tuesday's I take my dogs to agility class. Not only do I get to run agility with my dogs, which I love. I also get 2 hours of alone time in my truck to listen to my own music and chill. The BONUS every week is when I get home - it's much later than I am normally up...

Thanks so much!! This is exactly what I wanted to know! Now I can just stop at the store and pick them up. Thanks!

Yes, all 3 live together without any issues. We have extra tanks on standby and planned to separate them if they didn't all turn out to be females or if there was any sort of problem. They all get along quite well. Fade and Scooby are really best buddies. A month or so ago Chance was...

I have been meaning to weigh them the whole time we've had them but haven't. We have a really nice scale (as hubby and I are on weight watchers and weigh alot our food) and I'll just use a tupperware labeled for geckos only. I'll try to do it after kickboxing tonite. Even though Chance is my...

We got Scooby 1/16 and Chance & Fade 2/17. All were babies when we got them. My husband looked up pics on the internet of what a male/female belly should look like. He keeps checking our guys out and we haven't seen anything yet. Is it safe to assume that we have 3 ladies then?

Looking for suggestions on a dish that mealworms CANNOT climb out of. I house 3 geckos together so I don't want a huge dish and would like to have 2 in the cage if possible. Thanks.

We have a 20 gallon long and are planning on changing over from sand to tile as from reading on here I see that sand is not desirable. <please don't FLAME me for using sand - the 3 diff people I asked in 2 diff. pet stores all used it with their own personal leopard geckos> What is the best...

I have no clue, what's the difference? They just come in a little cup at the pet store and I'm not sure what they are. I thought they were super worms. They are very big and very ugly!!! They look like a giant mealworm except their colors are a little different.

We got our first super mealworms this week. I have no problem handling the crickets and the mealworms and in general I am the one feeding our guys each night. I refused to buy the super mealies b/c they are SO ugly!! Now that Chance and Scooby are getting bigger my hubby bought the supers and...
