I have a few questions

[Ziggy]

Hey everyone.
I'm new to taking care of Leopard Geckos and I have a few questions.

1. How do I tell how old my gecko is?
2. Is it possible to tell if it is a boy or a girl at a young age?
3. How many Crickets and Mealworms should I feed my gecko daily?
4. How long will it take for him/her to get used to me handling him/her?

Thanks Guys.

1. There is no way really to tell the ago if a leo (Correct me if I am wrong)
2. Yes, If you have a magnifine (sp) glass
3. Give them as much as they want. I keep my leos meal worms dish full 24/7. So they never go hungry.
4. It all depends on the leo. Mine still are getting used to me handiling them every day. I have 1 adult leo and two two month old leos.

Hope I helped!

My gecko doesn't seem to want to come out of his hide.
He is in there alot, I'll have to take some pictures at night.
