:) Hey again! It's been a while, but I wanted to stop back in and thank those on GU who have helped me, and show off Kirk as he's hitting the one year mark. (Photo taken 6/14/2013) This time last month, he measured 11.15 inches and 122 grams. He has lost a bit of weight since then, but he is...

At what size does a single leopard gecko get too big for a twenty gallon long tank? Can that happen? I understand that a bigger tank isn't always the best choice for most ectotherms due to heating requirements, but I want to make sure that Kirk is comfortable. Right now he is just about eight...

Background: Hey, all. :) Good to be back around the forum again. I purchased Kirk as a hatchling early this July, so he'll soon be seven months old. He's grown about an inch and ten grams every month since I've had him, and he's now 9" long (I used Swaddo's Herp Measure to determine this) and...

:) Long time no chat, guys! Kirk is six months old now, so I've upgraded him to a larger terrarium (20 gal long) with some pieces I've custom built for him. The back and side walls are made of foam board with window insulation layers and anchored styrofoam shelves. They've been grouted...

:) I just wanted to thank everyone here for the sound advice you give, and especially for the care sheet! I'm really glad I joined. Although I'm not posting on here often, I am still lurking and reading. Here's an update on my little fellow. Captain Kirk is growing so fast! Looks like I've got...

This is Kirk's growth between July 9th and July 29th. He seems to be getting big very quickly. I'm excited, but like any new parent, a little concerned. Is it normal for him to be growing at this rate? I like to think that he's improved drastically since I purchased him, but I also don't want to...

I've cultured feeder arthropods in the past (mostly aquatic), and had decent success. I've only housed crickets and mealworms in the past, however, and never bred them. Recently I've started a mealworm farm , and I have had a funny surprise. I happened across some "red mealworms" at a local gas...

:) Hey, everyone. Glad to be part of the community, and I just wanted to talk about my new little fellow. This is the third week I've owned him. My best guess is that he's a male, although I know sexing them at this age is tentative. I don't really know the morph. His eyes are a bit silver...
