i used to have a 45x45x45cm exo terra viv, but one day i thought im gonna treat my leo and get him a nice big gecko penthouse! i went and got the Viv-Exotic 36 inch like the one shown below.
the problem is i have almost never seen my gecko come out of his hide, he sits inside his hide day and night and wont venture out, at first i thought maybe it will take time but its probably been 2 months now since the upgrade and he rarely comes out if ever.
He's always been a bit shy but is this normal for a gecko? im wondering if a 3ft viv is just too big for a leo and too scary for him, anyone else here use a viv that big for one leo?
in case anyone asks if its the temps; they are 30-31c during the day and 26-27 at night so i dont think thats the prob.
thanks for any advice
