I'm Holly, and I currently live in Atlanta.

I own 8 leopard geckos, I rescue/adopt them only. I'm not very interested in breeding or collecting,
just rescuing as a hobby.
Sadly i'm not super interesting. I just have interesting geckos with amazing stories.

I actually came here to find a little insight on owners who have experience with clawless leos.
I just recently came across two 'unwanted' geckos, left at a local pet store to be rehomed.
They aren't too skinny, and since i've gotten them they've done nothing but eat.
The male has 6 claws left, the female has very little toes left.
It's pretty upsetting to watch them slide around, and not be able to climb.
So I suppose i'm looking for any suggestions for hides that they can climb easily with their little nubs!
They're currently on paper towels, and I have no intention of changing that.

Thanks for any help provided!

Welcome to GF! Awesome that you're helping out unwanted leos!

You might try making ramps out of something that doesn't absorb liquid - like plastic or sealed styrofoam. You can paint it with play sand mixed in non-toxic paint to give their nubs some traction so they don't slip as easily. Look around at some of the Do it Yourself (DIY) sections to get some ideas of what safe materials are!
