Hi Aliza,

I know I'm late, sorry I missed it when it was posted. I'm not sure if it's too late to comment?

I know you want the information to be as accurate as possible, so 2 quick comments:

Trying to climb up the glass

It also may be a good idea to shut off any bright lights over or near the cage or even cover the back and sides of the cage to block light from coming in from all angles and help your leo feel more secure.

On the contrary, they will hide if it's too bright.

What really motivated me to post was this: Licking it's bottom

Unless you're having regular fecal exams, this can be a symptom of Pinworms that can cause rectal itching. The count may be high and require medication. So it's important to have fecals no less than once a year. Twice a year preferred.

Thanks a lot for the comments. Once again, if you feel like it, go to the actual Gecko Time post and copy this into the "comments" section and that way anyone who reads the article will see it.
