OK....If you were going to convince someone that the Leopard Gecko is the perfect reptile to keep how would you convey it?

well Steve and very easy to take care of. And there is always something new and crazy you can produce. I too was always a snake guy but just don't have the time anymore. But if you still young and crazy you may get board with them. But with my kids now I can't have all kinds of dangerous reps around. And once I started breeding these guys I got hooked with what you can do with them.

OK,

I have been living vicariously through my friends LG and I am going to take the next step. What a wonderful reptile. Pictures to come, (hopefully soon).

Best reason: they are super easy to care for. Compared to other species, you really have to do things super poorly to kill one. Their supplies are easy to get and so long as you maintain a warm side at mid-to-high 80's, a cool side at room temperature, provide hides on both sides (some of which should be kept moist), provide a variety of well-gutloaded insects dusted with calcium and vitamin supplements, and clean water they should do super well.

And don't start with one from a crappy pet store - find one from a reputable breeder and you'll do even better.
