Good afternoon.
I've been lving on my own the past 5 yrs and i'm looking to get my first pet. I feel that a leo or 2 would be perfect I have been doing some research, and i intend in getting the tank ready in the new year.
However i have a few questions...
Does the Vivarium get warm on the outside of it? would it be suitable to put it on a large tiled table i dont use much? or would i be better in just getting rid of that and getting a tank with a stand?
The live feed, where can i store the live feed ? as i don't have a shed and i'm afraid they might smell?? what containers do i keep live feed in?
Do i have to feed the Leo crickets? if so can i just get them in the reptile shop that day i plan to feed her some? i live in the same street as a reptile shop, convienently lol.
If i get a female Leo. Can i add another female later (maybe a different colour sub species leo so i can tell the difference) , or would it be better to just get 2 at the same time? what do people generally do? Just get the one and a 3 ft tank? I think i would be happy with just one to be honest but i feel like she needs a friend , even though i read she doesnt lol.
do i need to register her with a vet?
How many plants and furniture will i need to get?
What do i put her in when im cleaning the tank?
is there anything i dont need which shops may say that i do?
Thanks a lot
