My little geckos!

[Bebop]

Never got a chance to show off mine (at least I don't think so?), so here they are!
I originally had just 3, but the guy who sold us our first two decided to get out of leos and sold us the parents and another one, we're going to be getting his last one in a couple weeks.
Well, here they are!
The originals

Europa

Andromeda

This one doesn't have a name yet, we don't know the sex yet either. Any clue to what color she is?

2nd group

Aries - He's Europa and Andromeda's dad. He's also really really huge! Like 10 inches? Is that a giant?

This is their mom. She doesn't have a name yet. She has an eye that is half black. What is that called? The other eye is kind of half black.

This one doesn't have a name either. She's a female. The other one that we're getting is this one's sister.

Man, I never thought geckos were this cool! I'm hoping to get a few more groups in the near future now that I'm living in a huge house instead of an apartment!
>^.^<

Nice looking leopards you have. The mom I think is a blazing Blizzard. 10 inches as about an average lenght.
I have 2 leopards a male Melanistic and a female Hi-Yellow that are 11 inches and weight 80 grams.

Good luck with your leopards. I enjoy all 15 of mine

 

[Baker14]

You have some nice geckos. Definietly watch there weight, especially the hypo with no name. She is very skinny

 

[moosassah]

Cool looking group. Are you jumping right into leo-ownership with 5 to start off with? That's a huge leap.

How are you housing them all? Like Jasen mentioned their sizes are quite varied, you'll want to separate them to be sure that everyone is getting proper nutrition. Get a scale for sure so you can really know how they are improving weight-wise.

 

[GekkoGalaksen]

Those geckos can turn into beauties...but many of them need to put on weight for sure!

 

[lazzara8478]

Definatly agree on the weight . They will be beauties once they fatten up a bit

 

[Mel&Keith]

That was nice of you to take them in, it looks like the previous owner wasn't doing the best job caring for them. Maybe you should build your own rack system for them since you have so many!

 

[gezzmo]

yap, some geckos are a little skinny, try to give him more food and vitamins. they are also a bit dark, check the terrarium contitions to see if everything is ok.

 

[Bebop]

Europa and Andromeda we got in November. They were about a month old? We got the nameless one in December. The nameless one is the youngest and the smallest. She came from Petco. I'm going to separate her because it doesn't look like they're letting her eat enough.
The 3 other ones are the older ones of course. I immediately took in the hypo along with the others because of her weight. She had just laid eggs recently and for some reason isn't gaining weight. Her sister is normal weight.

For a couple months old, what should their weight be?
It also could be the angle because the male is HUGE and so is the mom.
Also of course, they are indeed in 2 different tanks. I'll be separating the skinnier ones so I can increase their weight. I'm feeding waxworms and mealworms, dusted. Anything else I could give them?

 

[Bebop]

Here are hopefully better angles of Aries, Andromeda, Europa, and the little nameless one.

Oh yeah, Europa is having a crappy shed I think. The humid hide had too many holes, so I'm going to make a new one.

 

[Ccrashca069]

If you can find them silk worms and phoenix worms. Both are full of calcium and nutriants that leopard geckos need. Good luck with those leopards.

 

[Surf_420]

if you got a gecko from petco last month i hope you have quarantined that gecko and not let in come in contact with others. If he/she has paracites or other sickness/disease then the others could become infected as well.

Get a fecal samples and take it to your nearest vet.

If you had it with the other gex you may want to test them as well,

worms and other parasites can keep them from gaining weight like they are suppose to.

 

[Bebop]

Yup she's been quarantined (for that month) and she's also neg for parasites. I barely put her in with the other 2 little ones. No worries. I'm a vet major and I have many other herps (2 corn snakes, a rosy boa, bearded dragon, and a mellers chameleon) other than leos as well as a chinchilla, 2 ferrets, 2 guinea pigs, a dog.
I also had sugar gliders and other exotics.
I know what's up! >^.^<
I was thinking about the phoenix worms recently. I raise mealies and crickets and I wanted to try them (maybe not to raise). I'll probably get some tomorrow.

 

[Ccrashca069]

If your little nameless one keeps the pattern she has now she might be a circleback. But she is still too young to tell for sure.
I feed my leopards the phoenix worms whenever I can find them.

 

[johnnyboy4783]

Your blizzard has some shed on the toe you may wanna get off so it doesnt lose them, but other than their weight very nice geckos

 

[Golden Gate Geckos]

Other than just separating the little skinny one, are you housing all of them together??? What size enclosure ar they in? what are their warm side temps?

 

[Bebop]

No, they're not in the same tanks. I would never mix sizes of any animal.
The little ones are in a 20H which is going to be upgraded into a 20L next week. The larger ones are in a 20H as well, and they're going to be in a 55.
Temps are 85 during the day and 70 at night.

 

[Bebop]

Oh, I also have the male separate from the two females in an extra 10 that I have. He'll be in one of the 20s when I get them all set up.

 

[LeopardGeckoMom52688]

I feed strictly meal worms, wax worms and supers. My meal worms are gut loaded on a calcium rich diet, with meal bran, oatmeal, potatoes, carrots and I think thats it. I took in a aft about 3 months ago that had been about 30 grams for about 1 year in a half and now she weighs close to 50. After quarentine and clear fecal she is now being housed with a female with unknown age, Aft of course in a 20 gallon long. I just bought a aft that is being housed in a small tub because I don't have any small tanks, And the tub is within a tank with a under tank heater and light for extra heat. Its about 85 or so. And very humid. When she is being held we wash our hands with anomna. Just to be safe. Can't rish anyone else!

 

[Golden Gate Geckos]

Temps are 85 during the day and 70 at night.

The geckos will do much better with a warm side at around 92 (constant) degrees on theri tummies. You can achieve this using an UTH.
