How to House a Leopard Gecko

Leopard Geckos. So cute. Love the eyes, the way they look at you. He was in a store across time seeing them, just can not decide. Well let me assure you they make a wonderful pet. They are not aggressive at all. Very good temperament, and really easy to care for.

I personally owned by the Leopard Gecko eight years, and cared for them in the shop for over ten years. They are really easy for him as long as you have adequate housing. Leopard Geckos are nocturnal lizards. So, a lot of interaction during the day is not required. They like to be treated, except the young until they are used to it. So, when buying make sure you carry your baby every day for a little while.

housing them is very simple and does not require much space. All they require is a ten gallon tank, if you want something bigger I would not go higher then twenty gallon aquarium. You have to buy the top of the screen, either incandescent or fluorescent light fixture one. Fluorescent light is not necessary, but provides better viewing. You'll need to buy the bulbs go into the fixture. For fluorescent 2.0 or 5.0 will be enough, incandescent lamps 15-25 W, depending on the size of your okoliša.Pod-tank heater is required, and this, of course, gets stuck on the bottom of the tank from the outside. Make sure you place the Gecko will be sleeping. Proper surface, they are desert animals and Calci-Sand is best for your purchase. It is easily digestible and provides your pet with calcium when taking it.

Now you can decorate. Your new pet will need somewhere to sleep. You can make a den out of a rock or tree, or you can buy one already made. Within a day you need to put in the moss and keep it wet day, which will help your gecko shed its skin. They do not drink water, so it should be a water dish in there. Do not put plastic one there, because it will be a place for unwanted bacteria to grow. Most pet stores carry ones that are safe for your pet. Change the water daily. You can also add fake plants and wood from a pet store decorate your tank.

Looking after your new pet is really easy. The food is crickets on a daily basis. Small ones for babies and adults one for larger ones. Dust crickets 2-3 times a week with reptile vitamins. Scoop waste from the tanks daily. Not too hard, hey?

Well there is one thing, enjoy your pet and have fun!
