Hi. I just have a simple question.
When Star sheds, she always has a little left over on her toes. I keep an eye on this and give her up to two days to get it off herself before I intervene. Is this ok or should I be getting the stuck shed off right away?
Hi, right now I use paper towel subtrate. I am going to be switching to tile soon however my uth barely makes the floor temps with only one layer of papertowel and I sometimes have to substitute the heat with the red light. I am wondering if the uth I have will work with the tile or would I...
There is no heat in my appartment right now so it is a little on the chilly side. Is it ok for my leo to leave the red heat light on 24 hours a day until the heat gets fixed? My UTH alone this time of year doesnt make the right temps for day and now not for night either.
Hello,
Anyone have experience breeding mealworms? My question is how log does it take for the new baby worms to get big enough to feed to your leo? I spotted my first worm babies over a month ago and they are still tiny!
Hello,
When I first got Star a little over 2 months ago she was aproximatly 6" long from head to tip of tail and weighed 37g 6-7 months old.
She is now 9" long and 60g.
Is she weighing too much or is that a healthy weight?
At the beginning of summer I got a bigger tank for Star. I had been still using her small heat pad under the hide and a red heat light to keep the temps steady. I purchased a new UTH yesterday and the subtrate (paper towel) is still not warm to the touch. With the smaller heat pad I was using it...
Hello,
Star seems to be a little off the last couple of days and I dont know if I should be concerned or not. She is still eating, not as much but she is about 8 months old now so that would be considered normal. And she still has healthy looking poo every 2-3 days but she seems a little...
I know the rule about not feeding them something bigger than between the eyes but am still a little unsure.
My leo is a very healthy eater. She eats crickets, mealworms, small superworms and she tried silkworms this weekend and LOVED them. Every day she eats aprox. 10 crickets and would eat...
Taming Star has been a success! Today she climbed on my hand on her own :yahoo:
Sorry, just wanted to share with someone who would be as excited as I am :)
Also I started trying to breed mealworms. I set them up Saturday afternoon and only 2 days before I got my first pupa! :)
Hi, does anyone else have this problem? When I dust the crickets she cant see them as she is on papertowel and the crickets are white after being dusted they blend in. It takes her a long time to find them, they run right in front of her and she doesnt seem to see them. If I dont dust them, she...
Hi, I have a new leo, she is 1 1/2 years old approximately and I've had her for 5 days. How much should she be eating? Is there a way to over feed? She eats every day, about 6 crickets and 5-6 meal worms and seems to be looking for more! How many should she be eating at this age?
Hi, I found a weird bug in with the crickets I bought at the pet store. I think it is a carpet beetle larva? Is it common for other insects to be in with them? They should still be safe to feed to my leo right?
Hello, I have a new Leopard Geko, her name is Star. She is 1 1/2 years old. I've had her for five days and though she has a very healthy appetite, she hasnt had a bowel movement. How long should I wait before getting too concerned? She eats both crickets and meal worms. Last night she ate 4 of...
