So I've read in a few places that you can feed your geckos Superworms, and I'm just wondering how big a leo should be before you start feeding them. I always look at them when I go to the store, and even though SoCo is getting big, I just dont ever feel like he will be big enough to eat those...

So I've read enough on here to know that leos will eat their shed, either A) to not give up their location to predators in the wild, or B) for nutrients. My question is, do all of your leos eat all their shed?? SoCo seems absolutely healthy in every way, hes a good eater, a regular with his...

Once upon a time, I tried to buy a leapord gecko. But then my little SoCo turned into a pig. So since I've had SoCo, I've been feeding him every night sometime between 9 and 11 pm. My thought it, SoCo is nocturnal, therefore I'm feeding him at the begining of his day. He usually eats about...

So, I got a daytime lamp and took pics of SoCo and his home. Let me know what you think. I know they're a little blurry, but hes quick when he's eating. He really is that white color though. He has just a slight hint of yellow to him. I'm assuming he's a normal?

So SoCo had his first shed since I've had him yesterday (he's turning into a big boy!!). I looked him over and he seems to have gotten it all off his toes and tail and everything...hes back to his usual self today. I looked at his tail...if you all remember he sustained a bit from a slightly...

How do leo's hunt for their food? Is it through sight, feel, or smell?? My hubby and I have been debating this point. Sometimes the cricket can be right next to SoCo and he doesnt realize it, and yet sometimes the thing can be hiding on the other side of the cage and he like...senses it and...

Ok, so I'm posting pics of SoCo's vivarium, to make sure I've got everything right. The pics are a little dark due to the red light, but its the best I've got. Hopefully they post, because I've never posted with pics before. Left hand size it the heated size with the home on it. Its got a...

So, at feeding time today, SoCo decided it was Thanksgiving dinner. He had 3 crickets and 9 mealworms. yes...9. And it wasnt like I was force feeding. He was stalking and hunting said mealworms and seemed to thouroughly enjoy them. As long as I'm not hurting him, I'm not going to hold back...

So all of your advice on my last posting is very much appreciated. :biggrin: I've read like, fifty web pages, a lot of postings on here, and a few books, and now I just have a few more questions as I get my home set up for my leo. For one, I understand that I need to gut-load my crickets...

I am new to the reptile world. My husband and I have agreed to get a small pet, and I've ALWAYS wanted a reptile, so I've begun the process of trying to figure this world out. I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing, so I need something that is not tooo difficult. I also have some size and...
