I'm entirely new to this whole leopard gecko thing. I have 17 tarantulas, a tropical girdled lizard, and a crested gecko. We were at the LPS, and I saw these little guys (don't know sex yet). They were so cute and seemed so sentient, I just couldn't resist. They're very little right now, I'm keeping them in a 10 gallon aquarium with an UTH and heat lamp to keep the right temp gradient. The pics were taken the first night we had them home, so the tank looks a lot better now. Anyway, here they are!
Enjoying some warmth and personal space, away from all their brothers and sisters.

Cuddling in their humid hide. I know it looks like they're mating, but I promise they're not.

gorgeous :)
i want every gecko i see..and i always want to rescue them from pet stores..
today i actually COUNTED my money to see if i could afford another aquarium and UTH so i could bring home 7 baby leos...
they were not taken very well care of and were in with full grown panther geckos....
after i realized what i was doing and that itd cost $40 for the aquarium and UTH and then another $20 per gecko i cried lol
they looked just like your 2

Welcome! I started off with tarantulas too, thought leopard geckos are easy to care for (no lighting requirements) and eat the same stuff as T's, so now I have some 30+ Leo's after 3 years...
