Hmmm been a bit since i posted so time for an Ignatius update he turned 14 months old 2 days ago and is sitting around 8.5 inches long (a rough estimate cause i cant get him to sit still for a more accurate measurement) and he weighs 80 grams. I was thinking of getting another leo (soon i'll be a crazy leo dad) was looking at this girl on the morphmarket https://www.morphmarket.com/us/c/rep...-geckos/366180 the breeder is only an hour from my house so i wouldnt need to have her shipped.

Then you'll have a pair. Might you be thinking about breeding leos?

@Elizabeth Freer so when iggy turns 18 and is considered full grown what feeding schedule should i switch him to?

Here is Iggy's adult schedule, Gutler:

UVB Weekly Schedule 156 for leopard geckos 18 months old +

(with UVB)

Early stage metabolic bone disease (MBD) symptoms include uneven (lopsided) gait, walking on one or both "elbows", bowed limbs, belly dragging, and an underbite.

The Reptile Supply Company based in Lodi, California stocks Zoo Med's ReptiVite multivitamins withOUT D3.

Leopard geckos usually reach maximum size at about 18 months old.

Feed lightly dusted prey 2x per week.

• Monday > > crickets or dubia lightly dusted with Zoo Med's ReptiVite multivitamins withOUT D3
• Thursday > > crickets or dubia lightly dusted with pure precipitated calcium carbonate withOUT D3 (Zoo Med's Repti Calcium or NOW human brand calcium)
• Saturday > > Optional: mealworms, superworms, or black soldier fly larvae (Phoenix worms) > > no dusting

***** When your leopard gecko is taking advantage of appropriate UVB rays, Dr. Fran Baines (Reptile Lighting group's lighting guru) strongly recommends a backup dose of powdered D3 @ 1-2 feedings per month! Just substitute 1 D3 calcium dusting for 1 plain calcium dusting during those 1-2 weeks only. *****

Ha ha ha, Gutler! I hope you have a great time meeting other geckophiles! I hope you have a good selection of leos to choose from.

The Daytona Reptile Breeders' Show was one of the first reptile shows I attended way back in 2003. I had hoped to see more geckos. I did meet gecko peeps. At that time I lived in Seattle. After that show a friend and I drove down to Key Largo.

Here's 1/5 masks I sometimes wear that the mom of a gecko friend made:
