so when checking on my LG the other day, I noticed her tail had wounds on it. I believe she had a bad shed, and had retained shed on her tail...and in the process of taking it off, damaged her tail. Wounds look like she peeled some skin off, but nothing too deep or severe. I checked on her...

My two Leo's have turned 8 this year in September. One has always been an exceptional eater (but won't touch Mealworms), and the other one is addicted to Mealworms. Low and behold, after years and years of trying to get my mealworm addict onto Crickets, I have successfully converted her to...

Yesterday I switched from Plantation Soil (basically eco earth) in my moist hides to Sphagnum Moss. The moss initially smelled exactly as you would expect it too (like moss), but after about 24 hours in the moist hide, its starting to smell funky. I don't know if it's an air circulation thing...

One of my Leo's ate some paper towel last night while he was shedding. He has never done this before, (this actually happened with my female about a year ago, and she was able to pass it), but I'm a tad bit more concerned as he was able to eat a bit more than she did. He is much bigger than my...

I generally don't like to post negative reviews about products, but I must say, please do not buy the Exo Terra Gecko Cave if you are planning on using it as a moist hide. I had purchased 2: The medium and the large. Both are no longer being used due to mold growing inside. I have switched...

Hey Ladies and Gentlemen, I have a weird question, and I thought I would ask the board. I am using a Flukers Castle Crib (the one that has the water dish built into it) for my "cool" hide, and my Leo seems to hate it. She never uses it. It's also note worthy to point out that she never...

I recently bought a half log hide to use as a cool hide. After I got it home, and after further inspection, I noticed spots of sap, and some were breaking through the bark. The hide also gives off a strong smell. I'm not sure what it is, but it smells like pine, or maybe an evergreen type...

My Leo dropped his tail about 2 months back....he has actually bounced back great, and his tail has regenerated but it's kind of stubby and I want to know if it will ever regain it's full length again? He dropped it right at the base of the tail. Not in the middle. It's my understanding that...

I had a paper towel eating / tail dropping incident a few weeks back with my little guy....for a couple weeks it was pretty nerve racking, but things have been really great the last week and a half. I received a lot of helpful information on this forum and was able to get my little guy back...

This post is a few months early but I'm starting to wonder what will happen when the summer rolls around. It gets very humid where I live...90-100% I'd say is normal in the hazy months. I'm just wondering how I can keep the humidity down for my Leos? I put on the AC when I come home from...

Well, everything was going pretty great with my Leos. I was even getting my picky eater back on crickets. Last night however, my picky eater started to go into shed. This morning I noticed that while shedding, he/she must have confused shedding skin for the paper towel substrate in the moist...

This is what I was told, but I wanted to ask. What exactly would make this an enigma?

I have 2 juvenile Leos. One has been ignoring crickets for over a week now. It's odd to me because when I first got this little guy (or girl) he loved Crickets and actually ignored the mealworms. I have been feeding him hornworms, wax worms, and mealworms in the meantime...but I want to get...

My crickets must be eating one another because I'm losing them at an astonishing rate. I'm talking 2 or 3 per day. I know they are not escaping. But the odd thing is, I don't see a lot of Cricket bodies, or body parts. Just less crickets. I don't think it's that odd that crickets would eat...

I have 2 very young Leos. They get sunlight but never direct sunlight and I do NOT use a UVB bulb. I dust with plain Calcium 4 times per week and dust with Calcium w/ D3 AND a Multivitamin 3 times per week (I didn't initially mix with the Multivitamin but I read right on the label that I...

Some may have read my previous post asking about the temperature in the moist hide, so I will spare you the long story. Recently I got 2 young Leos, too young to sex. One is very docile and almost tame and the other is very active and skiddish, I'm just wondering if the active one is a male...

Anyone want to offer a suggestion?

I recently got 2 baby Leos (Snow Engima and Tangerine Redstripe (or Jungle, I'm not sure)). The guy I got them from told me they were 3 months, but they looked more like 1 month old. I've had them for 3 weeks now. Everything is fine, they eat a lot, get along fine, the tank (20G Long) is set...
