Ok so i have a baby leopard gecko and i wanted to house it with my full grown female leo. But i put them together and my female is licking the baby alot and she lunged at the baby. What should i do?

thanks TY

Take the baby out of there asap if you have not already done so

A large Leo CAN eat a small one and your female just might be tasting the baby when she is licking it

The stress for that baby has got to be tremendous


You need 2 separate tanks-one for each Leo

yeah i took the baby out. So i guess I'm going to have to put them in seperate tank's.

Yes... seperate enclosures. Adult geckos will eat babies.

keep them seperate until they become the same size, and then see how the interact with each other
