Advice on Gecko's

[warped one]

Hey, I own to baby Leopard Gecko's and I'm just wondering, how often you feed them and what on?
Mine are on Meal worms (small) and are given new ones everyday, the reason i ask is ive heard they can become obese, but ive had experience with bearded dragons which i unfortunately no longer see as it is the ex's which she isnt botherd with. That is example of my experience of reptiles. Ive read up on ne but different sites say different things, any help would be much appreciated as all I want is the best.

Do you keep them in a hot tank? Ive been looking at getting a lizzard for my bedroom when it gets built eventually. And was wondering. Are the conditions in the tank alright for growing weed?

I feed mine (adult) 2 crickets (large) or a large locust (with back legs chopped off) every other day.

With the babies You can feed them very small crickets, or gutloaded mealworms. I tend to avoid mealworms now, 'cause they aren't as good nutritionally as well prepared crickets or locusts.

I also make a little paste of cucumber and carrot every week or so and leave that in his vivarium for a day then take it out. Generally once they get to a certain age, they will ignore food until they are actually hungry.

The tank would probly be warm enough to grow it. But never having grown it personaly i wouldn't know but the specs for my tank are 18x18x24 with a ceramic heat lamp on top and heat mat on bottom giving a average temp of 90c i think, also there is a uvb bulb on top. Tanks (vivs) can go up to 72x48x48. The total of all that came to £200 plus elctro thermometre. Got to spend the money for the right stuff or you will loose out in the long term

Fenton, you actually want to grow a good 2 foot high weed plant, vulnerable to most disturbances, in a tank with a lizard large enough to need a 2 foot high tank (basically iguana's and monitors, ones highly omnivourous the other destructive)...

Right...

As for food, make sure you get the calcium dust of feed up the mealworms, growing bones etc. Mealworms (as mentioned) have fuck all nutrition. Watch out for the autotonous tail above all, always pick up from the front. If they lose the tail they grow back an ugly stump, and lose their fat reserves.

You could grow weed in a Herpetarium but your Gecko would start writing Reggie songs and sit around all day just rollin' an' chillin' man.

I know that large African toads like Geckos. But only one at a time and preferably still alive.

Your heater panel is at 90 farmheight not 90 Centipede?
I hope...

Make sure you give him/her a cool place in the herp. They control body temp. by moving from hot to cool. And it forces them to remain active.
As above ^ best to vary the diet as much as possible and try not to disturb the wee critter too much.

Look for a companion too. (edit never read the post. But red now )
I don't know how they are sexed, but with snakes a metal probe is pushed up their whistle hole and sex determined by how far up it goes compared to overall body length.

They are territorial as most animals are but a big enough house should provide a place where they can get away from each other.

Get book on it. Ask your vet. It is not fair to spring it on him some night when 'Little Gerry the Gecko' goes flat on the floor.
