New to geckos

[Emma's Lizzy]

I joined Geckos Unlimited for my almost 8 year old daughter. She got her leo this past Christmas 2012. I find myself on here almost daily. I appreciate all the information and help I have been given. Unfortunately pet stores don't give enough information or misinform when selling leos. I want this to be a good experience for my daughter. We want to give Lizzy a great home and keep her healthy. Any tips accepted with thanks.

Welcome to the forum! I know how you feel about the pet stores. most of them suck when it comes to leos or reptiles & amphibians in general. Your best bet would be to look for a reptile specialty store in your area.
