    Leopard Geckos laying on thermostat probe???

    Hello, everyone. So, I've noticed something interesting. I recently purchased flukers heat mats (11x11 inch ones for 20 gallon tanks) and new thermostats (Vivosuns, since I couldn't get hydrofarms) after my zoo med heat mats peeled away from the tanks and failed, somehow killing themselves and...

    Leopard Gecko suddenly off food and always in humid hide

    Hey everyone! I just wanted to update everyone with a picture of the little goof that started this thread in the first place. Lavi is doing very well now that whatever that little glitch was at first is done with. I've included a pic of him. He's around 6.5 inches long and is holding steady at...

    Calming Stressed Geckos?

    Hello, all. So, my parents hosted a party today that involved young children. They apparently thought it would be OK to take them in my room and let the kids "look at" my geckos (i.e. shriek in excitement and tap their tanks) . I came home to see them doing this, and quickly shooed the kids...

Trying to get him to hold still on the scale yesterday didn't go so well, but today I got him to hold still long enough for an accurate reading. I also took that pic for you. I apologize for the quality, since I only have my...

    Leopard Gecko suddenly off food and always in humid hide

    Not to worry; I was just going to ask about their legality! Especially considering a guy just recently got hammered by Florida Agricultural Law Enforcement for ordering Dubias. I know hornworms are completely native to Florida, so they SHOULD be legal, but the law can be kinda wacky around here...

    amsdadtodd He normally eats more than this. He generally eats 10-12 mealworms a day, but started eating less a few days before his shed. He shed on the 26th, and has been eating very lightly since. I spoke to a professional breeder I found near me, and she said to give it until Friday. If he's...
