    2 New Baby Bold Stripe Leos

    Hey everyone, just back to show everybody my pair of bold stripes a half year later. They are doing very well and both have adjusted to living around a noisy toddler and are very curious to come out to wander around. Both have willingly climbed onto my 3 year olds hands. Right now they both...

    2 New Baby Bold Stripe Leos

    Nov 11 update Bandit is definitely the more aggressive one who bravely wanders out to hunt while Stripe is more reserved and I need to toss the worm inside the cave to for it to eat. They are both eating and pooping well and growing at a fast and even pace although the gap is now starting to...

    2 New Baby Bold Stripe Leos

    Updated weights on Oct 13 Bandit 15g Stripe 12g They both seem to have been growing at the same rate with a increase of 6g each over 9 days. They have gotten used to the idea of being handled briefly after every feed as I'm cleaning the enclosures. The patterns are continuing to break up on...

    2 New Baby Bold Stripe Leos

    Thanks for the response! They were both eating on their own the next day after I got them so I know they had gone through their first sheds and were ready to eat. How long does it typically take them to double their hatching weight? They still look really small and it's hard to tell how much...

    2 New Baby Bold Stripe Leos

    I actually didn't realize they were really that young and small when I brought them home. Upon further research I estimate they were only a few days old when I took them home. The solid black is already starting to fade away on the sides on the one gecko and is developing some orange at the base...

    Humid hide not warming up on hot side

    Hey everyone, I have humid hides on the warm side where the ground temps reach 90-92f. However when I mist the paper towel with water it drops down to room temp and I find that it won't reach the desired temp until the towel is dried out. I'm using open faced rock caves as the hide? Maybe that's...

    Weird laying down position or something going on?

    Hey everyone. I've just recently picked up a pair of baby geckos that have been getting acclimated to their new environment, have been eating and passing stool normally. Today i noticed that one of them sometimes sleeps in a weird position with its butt in the air. Other times it's lays down...

    2 New Baby Bold Stripe Leos

    Hey guys I picked up these 2 beauties today and snapped some pics while I set them in their new home. Would the 2nd gecko be considered a stripe too if its colouring is broken on one side? I would say they are a few weeks old but I'm not too sure. They are eating about 5-7 small crickets each...
