New leopard gecko!:]

[Reptile Barbie]

So, today i posted a want add on craigslist for leopard geckos.
Within minutes i got a reply.. and the girl who had it was actually about 30 minutes away, thats it! :]

So we went and got it, and turns out, i think its a SHTB? SHTCTB? Im not sure, you guys have to help me out on that one!

I also got a big critter carrier with it.. like the ones that are usually about 20 bucks at pet stores..

here are some pictures of him, yes he's a male :]

Hes pretty calm, but, he will jump right out of your hands without even caring how far the floor is from him lol

Hes been eating crickets all his life, so any ideas on getting his swiched over to mealies?

Supposedly hes around three years old, and they got him from a reputable breeder, and he's 62 grams.


You guys aren't going to belive this.. but i got him for a whopping 25 dollas!! im not sure what their worth from a breeder, but im pretty sure their worth more than 25. Im so happy!!


You all know what time it is....
NAME TIME!! lol

I was thinking of naming him Weezer, because a Weezer song was playing on the way home from picking him up. But now that i'm home watching 101 Dalmations, i wanna name him Pongo lol Any ideassss?!

Thank you :]]]]
Do you know what i would get if i bred him to my normal female? shes a year and a half old, and about 60 grams

Is it just me or does he have shed on his face and toes?

Toe Jammers

Is it just me or does he have shed on his face and toes?

Toes for Sure.
Some from more than last shed.
Start shallow water walks. (gecko ankle deep)
A good buy.

Agree with H.J. He def has a bit of stuck shed on his toes..some soaking would do him some good..and if you can add a humid hide to his cage would be a benefit also. If you breed him to your normal female..you would get various amounts of hypo/tang/ct in the babies. Best of luck!

Thanks guys!
Yes, he did have stuck shed on his toes,
but i soaked him after the pictures :]


All of the shed didnt come off, so i had to help him, which he didnt like much, but alteast all of it came off :]
