Hi, First of all, wanted to say hi I'm new here, my name is Star. I recently took in a Leopard Gecko from someone off craigslist. I had one about 7 years ago, and had been thinking about getting another but was torn on buying one from Petco. Even though they were having a half off sale, I used to work there and didn't want to support them, lol. Anyway, it worked out. He came in a 10 gallon, but I just got a 20 gallon to move him into. I have been researching like a madwoman to try my best at doing things right for him. I got slate tiles, they fit perfectly in the bottom of tank, and am either making him a second hide from leftover pieces siliconed together or try the DIY way with styrofoam and grout and all that. I also got him one of those glad disposable containers with blue lid and some peat pots, not sure which I will use as his moist hide, or might try both. Stopped at a fish store today and they happened to have a snow Leo who was gorgeous. I have always wanted some kind of morph, (although snow is not my first choice) and asked if it was a male or female. Well, it turned out to be a male so couldnt' get it anyway, but maybe I should just concentrate on having one again for now? Lol. My question is, I know it was a pet store so the prices are ridiculous anyway, but this guy had a regenerated tail and they wanted $60. I have no idea about prices, so is this reasonable for a snow? (I think sub-adult, possibly adult)Later on down the road , much later, I would like to take a stab at breeding, and would like to buy a nice morph from a breeder. I'm assuming breeder prices are a bit higher, considering shipping too, but the quality of animal must be much better no? So I guess this was really just an introduction and my ramblings about today, lol. Look forward to talking with others!
