To tame his tegu, this guy on YouTube wore a shirt for a couple of days to get his scent on it, and put it in the tegu's enclosure. Would that work for a leopard gecko? I have a feeling it won't because tegus and leos are very different.

I don't think leopard geckos are that smart, but it never hurts to try.

I saw a video of a girl trying to use a clicker to train her leo, sadly I don't think it worked very well. Their brains aren't that far along I suppose, but you can still try!

Thanks, I suspected that Leos brains aren't that developed, but I just wanted to make sure.
