Watch this video on how to set up a hatchling leopard gecko cage. It's from oggiereptile who is one of my favorite youtube leopard gecko regulars. This one is all about creating a habitat for your baby leopard gecko. Interesting note on a substrates in particular...baby leopard geckos pick up anything so you have to be careful about housing them on loose materials especially sand. He recommends 'tissue or nothing'. Second that.
Leopard geckos always need a place to hide/shelter. oggiereptile here uses a cheap, simple lightbulb box to act as a hide which is great.
He goes through humidity boxes too which are very easy to purchase and use.
Be very careful not to make the water bowl too deep or they might drown. Bottle lids work well. You need two: one filled with water and one filled with pure calcium (not the calcium with vitamin and minerals because you can dust them with that)
About Me
- GekoGekoGal
- I was probably around 11 or so when a leopard gecko fell on me. I was so shocked, I was screaming but as I was in an elevator I had no where to run. I had flicked the gecko onto the floor and that's when I noticed that they're not so scary and they had that cool translucent skin. Maybe that's where my love for these little gecko pets began but I didn't realise it then. I'm kinda shy and none of my 'real life' friends are into geckos...in fact they find them yukky so I just write about them on the internet, and surf the net for cool gecko related info, videos, pics n stuff. Just wanted to express myself really. Since Friends and Sex N The City went off the air and 24, Heroes and Desperate Housewives got boring, I don't watch as much TV so decided to try my hand at writing and researching more instead in my spare time. Not much more to say....wish I had some fascinating stories but I don't.
