My dad just built a new cage for my leo. Do you think that a 40 watt heat emitter is enough to keep temps up at night? The substrate is slate and the dimensions are 36"L x 18"W x 16"H.

i got my gecko 2 summers ago and she has been eating fine since then. she ate 5 crickets last wednesday(february 9) and ate one cricket yesterday. when i try to offer mealworms or crickets, she just blinks and turns the other way. i will go get a silkworm and see if she eats that. she is still...

i don't know if this has been done or not but whatever... i'm sure everybody has heard that old wife's tale about the mealworm/superworm who ate throught the stomach of a gecko/other lizard. i decided to try this experiment myself. so we know that gastric acid has a ph of 2-3. vinegar also has...
