Very nice, clean setup. You've got plenty of room to give him all kinds of nooks and crannies.

Why not look into getting some nice rocks for him to hide in and around and under? You've definitely got the space for it!

It looks like you're using the 24" and 18" ExoTerra background put together. (your Leo will probably climb all over it!)Since the two panels don't quite line up exactly, you could hide it with some moss or plants hanging in front of them. Just a thought.

Nice setup for sure ... Curious: what size UTH you using? 11"X10"?

I really like it, I think it's very nice and you did a very good job setting it up!!!! You should take more pics, with different angles, so we can see what's inside better :)

Very nice setup! Kudos to you for doing all of your research and getting everything prepared in advance for your new little one! S/he will appreciate it! ;)

thanks!

id like to get one as soon as possible (of course)... there was one my g/f and i saw at a pet store (i know :main_rolleyes: ) that actually looked pretty well taken care of, but that was a few weeks ago and i havent been back there enough to see how their leos actually turn out - if they are, in fact, well taken care of

i missed a show last week that i really wanted to go to, and the next one around me isnt until the middle of july :(

i have, however, been keeping an eye out online, but a lot of places are running out/sold and do not have any babies yet

so for now, i keep waiting
