From Illinois

Hey guys I'm new to geckos and i really want to get a leopard gecko. So I just have some questions.

Will a ten gallon work for an average leo?

How can I tell if my gecko is healthy, and does this forum have a care guide?

I noticed my last post has been ignored for a good amount of time and it kinda bothers me. So I'm new to this forum and i really want a leo and I need some tips from professional to newbie.

Hello! I've kept a Leo in a ten gallon without any problem. Some say they need 20 but 10 works too as long as everything they need is provided (UTH, warm hide, cool hide, humid hide, food bowl, water dish, supplements)

I do believe there's a care guide on here, but another one I like to refer people to is the one by geckos unlimited which you should be able to google.

Another suggestion I have is to read as many posts on here as possible, even the ones that are on the same topic. Be as familiar with everything as you possibly can be

Welcome! ANOTHER Illinois keeper! Where about are you?

I keep two of my adults in 10gallons and they are thriving quite well
