    Haven't had a chance to go see it again, but if I'm remembering correctly, it looks more like this...

    Lighting questions

    At our new house, the gecko tanks aren't getting quite as much natural daylight as our old house. I was thinking of getting some type of light so they have a more defined day and night schedule. I've got 2 leopard gecko tanks and a Turner's gecko tank. I've read that sometimes Turner's geckos...

    Gold headed gecko questions

    I'm looking to possibly get another gecko and found one that is only labeled gold headed gecko. I'm not sure exactly which species it is but from the research I've been doing, I'm somewhat sure it's some type of lygodactylus. It eased small, around 2 inches, and a tan color. It was mostly hiding...

    Building shelving unit questions

    So I managed to get some new front opening tanks and am looking to build a nice shelving unit for me geckos now. I've got a 40 gallon breeder with screen top that is hinged in the middle so I can get into the tank. I've got a 12x12x18 front opening and an 18x18x12 front opening. I'm planning...

    Looking for heating/substrate suggestions

    I couldn't find Nashua take but I did find this. Do you think it's basically the same thing and will work?

    Looking for heating/substrate suggestions

    Here's hoping my pictures work. First one is Gordon, male (I think) leo. Next are the girls (they've lived their whole lives together and actually didn't do well when I tried to separate them so they'll continue living together with monitoring). Digit is the more yellow one on top. Vastra...

    ideas for next gecko species?

    I'm starting to think ahead (way ahead) to the next gecko I'd like to get but I can't decide which type. There are so many that I'm not even sure where I want to start looking. There are a few things I do know I'm looking for though. 1. something that will be active in the day and not hiding...

    Looking for heating/substrate suggestions

    I managed to get 2 of the exo terra terrariums with doors on front on Cyber Monday for a great price. One is 12x12x18 (for my Turner's gecko) and the other is 18x18x12 (for my leo). I've got tiles to cut to fit into the tank as substrate. I've got just a few questions (I'm looking for things...

    Exo Terra terrarium questions

    I'm thinking of asking for an exo Terra terrarium for Christmas. I'm just not sure what size. I want the kind with the front opening doors because then my custom shelving unit won't have to be so tall since I won't have to take the top off to access the tank. I really want one for my male...

    Converting entertainment center questions

    I'm up to 4 geckos in 3 tanks now. Gordon, sub-adult or young adult Leo male I think: he's in a 29 gallon tank. Digit and Vastra are adult females: they share a 40 gallon breeder (they've always lived together and I watch for any issues between them and have seen none). Strax, young adult male...

    Got my C. Turneri gecko

    Strax is doing well. I've spent been making his home a bit more natural. The piece on the left side has lots of hiding places inside of it (it's open backed placed against the glass with paper taped to the outside of the tank so he feels hidden but I can peek if needed). Middle is some stacked...

    Got my C. Turneri gecko

    Strax is full grown, loves to eat and climb the tank walls. His tank is pretty basic right now but I'm looking to add more things to it as I have the time to make them (same thing with my leos). I haven't found much info on them but luckily the person I got Strax from has had them for the last...

    Would these ceramic tiles be good?

    Found 15 ceramic tiles for sale. No sticky back. About 1/4 inch thick. And they're only asking $5. The tiles are 12 inch by 12 inch. That should be enough to cover the floors of my soon to be 3 enclosures. I'm not sure how smooth of a surface they are. I also wasn't sure if that would be too...

    Chondrodactylus turneri question

    So from the tiny bit of research I've started, this is more commonly called a Turner's gecko. I did read a care sheet on here about them and it mentioned they can be even easier than leopard geckos to keep. I've currently got 3 leopard geckos and just saw that someone had a Turner's geckos for...

    foam hide/decoration plans with questions

    Now that I've got my 3 geckos settled in (baby Gordon in his own 29 gallon and the older girls, Digit and Vastra, in a 40 gallon long) I'm starting to plan some better hides and decorations. I want to make it more realistic. So far I've only worked on planning the girls' tank. I'm going to...

    My three new geckos

    Here my three geckos (I've had them in the past but just got back in to them). The little guy, hubby calls it Gordon, is too small to determine sex. I've had it a week, it eats great and shed last night/today. It's 10 grams. It's the first picture. Then we've got the two I adopted from the...

    possibly silly question

    I have the feeling the answer will be "no" but I'm going to ask anyway. Our local humane society has 2 adult leopard geckos for adoption. They are bigger than any I've ever had but look very healthy. They're also very hand tame. I'm looking for a gecko or two as a classroom pet. I'd love to...
