So i let someone look after my reptiles while I was on holiday. I also left them my cricket box too, which is a large tub. I usually keep a cap of dry food in there and sometimes give them some fruit and they keep well and clean. My dear friend decided to 'do me a favour'. She put a thick...

I have a fish-scaled gecko (geckolepis maculata). She's very beautiful and about 16cm in length (6inch). I'm gonna build a new tank for her, a 40-gallon vertical paludarium, which will be planted and bioactive. I will probably keep it about 25-30 degrees C (77-86F) with high humidity, which is...

So i'm having an argument about whether or not it's humane to keep 4-6 females in a 18"x20"-ish rack system, like many industrial leopard gecko breeders do. The other guy said that leopard gecko females in the wild communally lay eggs? I did my own research, and couldn't find anything about...

Hi everyone, i'm new to this but having a great time so far. This is my new gecko, a rescue. I was told she was roughly 1 year old? She eats mealworms but i haven't got her to eat anything else yet, (i just have a load of unused crickets now :roll:) . she's lovely and tame, loves to spread her...
