Hi friends, last night I brought home a baby who had to have his tail and back left leg amputated due to some sort of unknown trauma. I have no idea how old he is but he is TEENY, maybe the size of a finger. I'm mostly looking to see if anyone has any additional feeding information since he is...

I am currently in the process of setting up a bioactive enclosure for a gargoyle gecko and I have beautiful, lush Wandering Jew growing right outside my porch and would love to be able to use it in the tank. Can I use reptisafe water to clean the plant? Should I cut off a stem in an attempt to...

What is going on with my Ollie's vent? (UPDATED: I meant pores) I've never noticed this before. He doesn't seem to be licking at it or bothered by it or anything but should I be concerned? It is hard and crusty feeling. I did a 10 minute soak but it doesn't seem to really budge.

This is the difference in 24 hours. Left was him last night after I got him, right is the day before he came home. And yes this absolutely is the same gecko, I have matched up the patterning & spots! I have seen him "fired down" and while it is a light sand color it is nowhere near this white...

I'm looking after a co-workers 1 year old, 15 gram, almost 6 inch long leopard gecko. She has lived on sand her whole life *insert eyeroll* and she gets fed 3 to 4 mealworms 3 to 4 times a week. *insert angry face* I'm unsure of her supplements but she said she does dust her meal worms. She is...

I'll be finding out this weekend if I will be able to adopt a baby geck because the store does not think it will sell due his eyes. It has red eyes and keeps them constantly closed unless it is shaded or under something so that it is dark. Im told that it can hunt crickets even though the...

I got my leo on August 4th at a reptile convention & told was around 11 or 12 months old which would mean that he is now around 13 or 14 months. But I weighed him for the first time a few nights ago & he is 46 grams. Also, he is in the process of having his 5th shed since I've had him. He seems...

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this post but I wasn't sure where else it might be more suited. I've got Ollie out & he's under my shirt & covers just walking around on me & he gets to where my hand is. Palm facing him (a little moist/sweaty I guess) and he started licking it and kind of...

I'm so afraid that I'm over feeding my new baby (I was told he's around a year old.) I was advised to feed him as much as he can eat within 15 minutes, every day. He eats 5 to 8 crickets every day! The lesser amount is just because I choose not to give him anymore. Also, I calcium dust on...

On Saturday I finally got my first leo! (Ollie is his name!) I got him from a breeder who told me that is around a year old. Hes very energetic, eating well & loves exploring! I'm probably over doing it a bit with the handeling but I'm limiting the time between 10 & 15 minutes per day. I'm sure...

Hey GU! As a new leo mom I have plenty of questions to make my new addition the happiest he can be! I've read about 356,743 mixed reviews on which is best for leos.. I understand that they need heat on their bellies to help digest food but does that necessarily mean that they need an UTH? Would...

Hello GU, I'm a new Leo mom & I've been doing tons of research (probably too much, I'm a bit overwhelmed) on substrate.. my question is, would it be ok to use coco husk or eco earth in the bottom of the setup and place river rocks (very flat, no sharp edges & sanitized) over top so that he has a...
