Leopard Gecko Craves Seafood

Cute video. My tokay enclosure is next to my computer desk. On my computer I run a screen saver that has very real looking aquarium theme with fish swimming around. The tokays will often sit for hours pressed up against the side of their enclosure watching the "fish" swim around!

haha those tokays must be going crazy! I moved my betta tank within a few feet of my leos' cage and there's been a few times where I could tell they were eyeballing the fish... you know, with the hunting face: :shock:

That was interesting to me because I've only seen them really focus their eyes on objects that are within a few inches of their nose. Well, I guess I HAVE caught them watching me intently from across the room :evil:

Im guessing their vision is based on movement: that they don't really process what theyre looking at unless it moves or makes noise. Kinda like the tyrannosaur in jurassic park!

A few of my leopard geckos actually seem to enjoy raw shrimp. I rarely ever offer them any however sometimes when I am feeding shrimp out to the salamanders I will dangle a small piece in front of the two that will take it in order to add some variety to their diet.
