Hello!

Hi!

I'm Laura, I've just got a 2 year old male leopard gecko yesterday from a guy who was moving house - I've named him Batman!

I love geckos but this is the first one I've owned so I'm really wanting to make sure Batman is comfortable in his new home.

He seems OK however not very playful since last night, and he hasn't eaten anything since he got to my house (about 15 hours ago)

Also, the guy said he just feeds him mealworms - the mealworms seem to turn into beetles, should there be beetles running round Batmans Viv?

Nice to meet you all!

From Laura & Batman

welcome to GF!
Congrats on your new leo.
And no, the beetles should not be running around the viv.

Thanks guys!

Ok, I popped up to the pet place at lunch today, bought a new bigger viv, loads of things to play with so will set that up over the weekend n then i'll be able to make sure there are no beetles running round, thanks for the advice.

He seems to be perking up which is good! Put some food right in front of him and he ate that too which is a good sign, also gave him one waxworm to cheer him up
