Might be bringing home a baby gecko

[Yoh4n]

Hey I might be bringing home a baby gecko if I can make room for one. But is there a different way of introducing a baby gecko to new home or is it going to be the same as an adult and would I have to rise the temps for babies? I have little meal worms so it can eat and I also have an extra tank.

From what I understand of babies, and mind you I got my leop as a sub-adult, they don't like big enclosures. It makes them feel unsafe unless you provide extra hides. I don't believe that you need any temperature changes. It should be the same for adults andbabies as they are both still leos. Feeding is every day instead of every couple of days like an adult. I can't comment on suppliments as like I said I never raised one from a baby.

OK Thank you shrink

You're welcome. Wish I could have more advice for ya but like I said never raised a baby.

Has the baby eaten at all yet? Use caution... a baby who has not eaten yet and will go through stress, may not eat at all. How old is it?

I agree !! u need to be careful on the babies.How old is the baby.Make sure she is eating regularly.I dont sell mine until they are well established with feeding

Well I dont know i looked on craigslist and it looked like a baby. The person seemed like they dident even have it very long because they said "Baby leopard gecko for sale.
Bought one for my daughter and one for my son. My son is done taking care of it.
They look really cool and is a fun pet for the right person.
He’d like to get $15 for it.
They run $29.99 at *****
This type of gecko can not climb so a 10 gallon tank with no top will work."

Could you post pics of the leo, so we can take a look at the size.
