So yesterday i went to home depot and bought ceramic tiles for my gecko tank and spent about $4 for 3 tiles which covers my 20 gallon long. So now there shouldnt be any worry of impaction, nails/teeth getting stuck in reptile carpet, ive finally have everything i need, except for 2 hydrofarm...

Hey guys, i have repti carpet for both of my geckos, and it so far the hot spot under the rock in which they lie under is not getting too hot, its almost perfect. But since sometimes these geckos tend to get their nails and teeth stuck on it, im willing to switch to paper towels. I dont have a...

well heres some interesting news. Ive had my big mack snow female for almost a year, and use to eat mealworms and crickets, now that she is adult size, she seems to always want crickets and never mealworms. I recently bought a juvenile leopard gecko, who ate a few crickets the a few days after i...

It's nice to be back on the forum, just wanted to let everyone know both of my geckos are doing quite well, ive been paying a lot of attention to both geckos, and they seem to be eating a lot and properly digesting and defecating . My little juvenile is beginning to be more comfortable with me...

Well this morning i found a little poop which means my big gecko passed something!, ever since i turned off the basking light for the night and day, she seems a lot more active and seems to feel a lot better! I just switched sand for repti carpet and there's no problems whatsoever. I fed her 3...

I bought a baby leopard gecko 2 days ago!, its about 2.5 inches long and pretty cute. The first day i got it, a few hours later it ate 4 small crickets, and then the next morning i found poop that has half the length of its tail which was pretty big for a baby, the second day it didnt eat...

Hey everyone, i thought id ask a question. My leopard gecko shedded on monday and hasnt ate since. I usually keep the temperatures close to what they need, but since winter is almost done, its still fairly cold out and it just snowed. So ive heard that most reptiles can sense weather patterns...

Well day 3 after shedding, and my gecko still refuses to eat.. Seriously why? the last shed 2 sheds ago, she ate after 3 days. I mean she ate most of her skin this time, and last week i fed her one cricket every day. Could that be why?

Well im sure by now lol, you guys know my leo shed on monday, and now it is day 2 and she still wont eat. i threw a cricket in there and she didnt even acknowledge it. Im assuming it is because she ate her skin on monday and is going to be full for a little bit. I just want to know whens a good...

Alright well my leopard gecko just shed today. When i came back from school she was all done and she literally got everything, let me emphasize "everything", except for one thing, which was a little skin leftover under her eyes and around the upper mouth region. thank god nothing didn't get in...

Its going to take me awhile to fully grasp the nature of my leopard gecko lol. But her skin looks a little darker than usual but at the same time there's a little white to the mixture, like a light coat of hit barely visible but if you look close enough you can see the white. my digital...

alright well i feed my gecko 2 large crickets every other day sometimes every two days, just because i love to spoil her a little;-) i make sure she has proper temperature so she can fully digest her food, which she does! but i usually leave a bunch of mealworms in her dish, and she never seems...

Can someone please give me exact temperatures for both day and night on average. Only reason why i am asking, is because there are so many different places giving me different temps., so im a little confused and would like to know the exact/average temps for night and day, thank you!:biggrin:

Will since i live in new england and its still winter, i had a problem keeping my leopard gecko tank cold, i someone brought up the idea of putting a towel on one end the tank to hold more heat, because heat rises, and in a 20 long, its hard to keep the heat in with all the 65 degree atmosphere...
