As the title says. There are no pores but it looks like the gecko has hemipenes so...

Hey guys how are you? Today I finally decided this question may have relevance. The title is pretty straight forward I know once geckos reach a year old of maturity the food and supplement schedule changes and I’m curious if it’s maybe best my gecko does that early. She was born last August 16th...

So I’ve grown a pretty successful mealworm colony however now that School is out I’m going to my dads for the summer and obviously taking my gecko with me. My dad and step mom are extremely against keeping the colony because they said “if two get out and mate in our floor boards I’m not paying...

Not much to this post just curious Ik it may not be able to be done with all geckos but I’d certainly like to try. So any advice on getting my gecko asked on me/in my hands etc?

As the title says it’s been quite a bit since I’ve browsed these forums. So I just wanted to let everyone know how Lucy (my gecko) is doing cause the first weeks were quite hectic. I don’t even know where to begin I know I can say I definitely have grown way more attactched to her than I thought...

My gecko lucy I think it’s cause she’s in shed was being incredibly crazy today when I went to do her water and I picked up one of her fake plants with a heave base on the bottom and the top piece broke and it fell and landed on two of her toes. I don’t think it will kill her but I definitely...

Just recently I went to get some mealworms from my local petsmart and all was well as it’s a pretty alright shop but just now as I went to go through the worms to pick the biggest to feed off I came across this strange bug I’ve never seen and I don’t want to feed my lucy any of these mealworms...

Well, as said in the title I’ve had my gecko lucy for 3 weeks now and while there was progress it seems as I’ve I’m going backwards now. She now bites me rather consistently, wags her tail when I’m near, does not like being picked up at all. Honestly if she turns out to be a gecko who just...

Yesterday as I was handling Lucy(my leo) and she’s still pretty flighty as to be expected, but because of this I had a thought. How do I make handling a positive experience for my leo. Now of course I know every leo is different some love handling others hate it, if at the end of the day she...

So it has been interesting my gecko Lucy has been amazing. She is so crazy pretty it’s not even funny and it hasn’t even been two weeks but I’m going to go ahead and do this early because today has been quite the interesting day for me. It started out as just a normal day and then when I got...

So my 5 month old gecko is shedding for the first time since I’ve had her which is fine but it appears she isn’t getting it all off her toes but I don’t have her completely tame so I can’t just get her calm and get it off so what should I do to get it off without stressing her out?

I’ve noticed she’s been laying with her front legs behind her and palm up and I’ve seen a lot of mbd geckos do that. I’ve only had her for a week and she’s getting plenty of supplements so please tell me it’s not mbd!

So I just got my gecko this last Friday and so I’ve almost had her for a week and I suppose taming is going alright I’ve gotten her one my hand but she’s NOT a fan of being lifted of the ground after crawling on my hand and after doing that yesterday today she would come on my hand at all she’s...

So my gecko is going to be here in the morning and tomorrow im going to pick up crickets and mealworms. So here are all of my questions. 1. With a baby (4 month old) gecko how much crickets/mealworms should I buy to last a month? Can they (bugs) even last that long before getting to big for my...

There is a beautiful gecko I want to order but from BHB reptiles all the geckos are female and im so cautious of egg binding, and I dont really want to ever have to pay for a vet visit, not that I can’t just dont want to, but moral of the story should I really stress about egg binding? Also this...
