    New to AFT

    I haven't been on this site in what seems like forever- but have recently been given a AFT and am having a hard time finding information on them. My friend whom gave her to me had her in a huge odd shaped tank- it was like 35 gallons but also tall. She was housed on playground sand. Since...

    Leos eat silkworms?

    I found on here awhile back that hornworms were an okay feeder, but cant find anything on silkworms. Are they alright to feed to leopard geckos? Do they seem to like them? Thanks in advance

    URGENT!! possibly blocked?

    I've had my leo's for over 6 years with no issues. This morning I saw Napoleon out walking around outside of her hide, which is weird for her during the day, but I was up and doing stuff around my room and figured maybe she was curious. Then I noticed she was hunched up as if trying to poop...

    40B tank

    I currently have two leos in a 20L tank. I just built a crossfire for my beardie and will have an open 40B. Would it be worth the stress (to the leo's) to move them into this bigger space? Of coarse, I'd give it a good cleaning, etc.

    Tip of tail?

    I have two leo's that are housed together, both female. I've had them since '06, so they are going to be 6 this coming year. They have always been housed together and are house mates. I have this DIY humid hide I made, and yesterday one of my leo's has learned how to get in-between the humid...

    How to plant

    I'm getting a pacman frog soon and want to properly plant some life plants as I hate the look of fake. I understand you need hydroballs, screen, and cocoa fiber. I believe you put down 2'' of hydroballs, then the screen, then the cocoa fiber. I think the hydroballs are for drainage? And with...

    Humid Hide Question

    I currently have two humid hides made out of plastic containers in my leo's cage, and one in my armadillo lizards cage. I recently did a DIY project for my bearded dragon. I was thinking, has anyone ever made a DIY humid hide? Would they like the darkness of it? Would it hold humidity better...

    superworms?

    I searched the thread and couldnt find anything so hopefully this isn't asked often. Can Leos be fed superworms? The petco by me sells a 50ct of supers that look medium in size, smaller than their larger 100 ct supers i buy for my beardie. I think my leos would like them, but wanted to make...

    how many reptiworms?

    I just ordered reptiworms for my jones armadillo and he just eats as he pleases out of his bowl (usually when I'm not around, very skittish). Anyways, I love these little guys, so much easier than crickets, etc. My question is, does anyone use these for leos, and if so how many makes a meal...

    fighting geckos?

    I have had two female leo's housed together since they were babies, and they are now around 6 years so its been more than awhile. Well, only one of them lets you handle it and actually seems to enjoy getting out for a good exploration. Well I don't get her out too much because usually when I'm...

    undertank heater safe?

    I have my leo and my cordylus lizards tanks on bookshelves, I was wondering if this would be safe with the undertank heater. Will the air circulate enough? you can feel its warm on the underside of the shelf, but its not burning or anything (yet). So, do you guys put them on something like...

    Safe plants?

    I have looked all over online and am still a lil worried even after I planted these things. Is Ivy safe to an anole lizard? you may remember me from my latest posting of recently finding a brown anole, etc etc. Here is the 10 gallon I have set up for the little guy, does it look alright? He's...

    found lizard.. help!

    So I was at work today (Westlake Hardware) and saw this little guy/gal hanging out on my plant trays at my register. Long story short I now have it at my house in a tank. I took it home because it looks to me like an anole- I'm in the midwest- it wouldn't survive here. We think we probably...

    Cage Size

    Ok, so I asked earlier on this thread about possibly getting a crested. I think I'm going to take the plunge, but I still have one set back. I have read the FAQ on the top of the forum, and looked all over online, but still not sure about size of tank. Would a 20 high work alright? I'd...

    Baby crickets!

    So, i went to mist my leo's humid hide out today... and there were like 100 baby crickets in there! I already dumped it out- they were really gross. Anyways, I don't see any evidence that they were able to get out of the humid hide, but do you think I should clean out their tank to be safe? I...

    housing?

    I asked earlier about possibly buying a crestie.. still researching before the big show in May to make sure I can properly care for it, along with my zoo (haha). Anyways, I recently bought a 65gallon Reptarium for my bearded dragon so he can bask outside on nice days. I was very impressed on...

    BeatsPeat

    Thought I'd share this since so many of you probably use it... I found a great product called Beats Peat found at any local hardware store/lawn garden store. It's the same thing as Ecoearth sold at pet stores only you get four times as much for a cheaper price. The packages looks huge but it...
