First Time Mom, and I have questions!

[greenhousegecko]

Hi everyone I hatched my first gecko yesterday! I am in complete bliss!
I have a few questions though...
1) What temps do you keep your babies?
2) Do you include all aspects of an adult home for the new hatchlings?

Thanks!

I keep the babies at the same temperature as the adults. When they first hatch I give them only a hide. I mist them several times a day. When they start to poop and shed at about 3 days I add a water dish, calcium dish, food dish with a few mealies and a small humid hide that I make out of those plastic baby food containers. If you need any more info, there is an artilce on Gecko Time (which, I admit, I wrote) about care and feeding of new hatchlings: http://www.geckotime.com/care-and-feeding-of-gecko-hatchlings/
