Greetings from Donovan the Leopard Gecko

So, I asked a bunch of questions already, but on Friday evening, I got to finally bring home my new Leopard Gecko: Donovan

He's doing well. Adjusting to his enclosure (although, he's staying more on the warm end -- which will be resolved when the new recommended Ultratherm UTH arrives and I'm able to change it out) and yesterday, he ate 3 superworms. Tomorrow I'll probably try offering him some of the Dubia roaches (with D3 calcium powder on them).

My husband and I both got to hold him at the place we got him (he's between 18 mos and 2 years old). He was super chill about being held. He politely informed me yesterday that he wants more time to adjust to his new home before I think about holding him (little nip on my finger), so I have to be patient. He's been alternating between a fake log hide and the moist cave hide (cave hide seems to be the daytime favorite - although he does periodically stick his head out to see what's going on).
