    Leopard Gecko tail issue

    I was doing my weekly cleaning of my leo Sam's tank when I noticed there were a few pieces of uneaten shed in his cool hide. So i decided to uncover him in his warm hide to make sure he had shed his toes without problem, which is when I noticed that the tip of his tail was red/purple and looked...

    At what age is a Leopard gecko considered an adult/ adult Leo feeding schedule.

    I will have had my leopard gecko for a bout a year in mid March and I was wondering at what age they are considered adults. If a year old is considered an adult, could someone provide a good adult feeding schedule, I have looked at a few but they don't include when to add supplements or calcium.

    Bloated leopard gecko

    I went to pick up my leo tonight and noticed that his abdomen seemed a little bloated. He's been eating normally, and he normally poops every few days. He has a CHE set at 82 and a under the tank heat pad set at 91 it is getting colder and I don't know if I should raise the temps or not. He eats...

    I recently bought a ceramic heat emitter for my leopard gecko. I plan on hooking it up to a thermostat and was wondering what temp I should set the CHE at and where I should position the temp probe for the thermostat at.

    Getting a Leopard Gecko to eat mealworms.

    I'm planning ahead for when I eventually go on vacation for a week in the winter, and right now my 6-7 month old leopard gecko refuses to eat anything besides small crickets. Now when I go on vacation my parents are the ones who will be looking after my gecko and I want to try and get my gecko...

    Ceramic heat emitter recommendations

    I'm looking into ceramic heat emitters to use during the winter months for my 5 to 6 month old leopard gecko (his age is a total guess as he is a rescue). I have never used a CHE before so I'm not sure what wattage I should be using or which brand I should get. I'd be using it for a tank that...

    Supplementing issue

    Within the last week my rescue leopard gecko hasn't been wanting to eat any insects lightly dusted with any form of calcium supplement. This morning I tried to feed him, since he was wide awake for some reason, and the first cricket I gave him didn't have anything on it, he ate it just fine...

    Keeping crickets

    I've been keeping all my gecko's live crickets in one of those cheap 'Cricket Keepers' from Petco. My leopard gecko goes through about 20 in a week but really only seems to eat 3 times a week, so some of them end up dying and the container is a pain to clean out. I've also been using the...

    Leopard Gecko Morph?

    I recently rescued a male leopard gecko and I was wondering what morph he might be. Edit* I've noticed that he doesn't like bright lights. He tends to either squint in a well lit area or keep his eyes closed completely. I use a black night bulb in his heat lamp and it doesn't seem to bother...

    New Leopard gecko- Substrates

    The calcium in the small dish is calcium without d3. (I hope the photos show up) he gets calcium with d3 2 to three times a week on his crickets. The last time I measured him he was 15 inches snout to tail tip, I can't find a ruler in my house anywhere all of a sudden. A feeding and...

    New Leopard gecko- Substrates

    Back in March my friend rescued a young leopard gecko who had been abused, and asked me to take care of the little guy as his apartment doesn't allow pets. I've been told that this leo had been kept on sand during his period of neglect but he refuses to set foot on sand since I've had him, he...
