Soon to be a proud owner

[Gnochi65]

I just wanted to say hello to everyone. I am in the process of getting everything ready for my first leopard gecko, and getting very excited! I have learned a lot from this forum along with doing other research. I think I have the basics and am looking forward to learning more about them. I suppose my dilemma is- do I buy from a breeder or rescue from the pet store?
Any advice is welcome!

Welcome! If you want to be positive that you will be getting a healthy, well started Leopard gecko, I would buy from a breeder. You could go with a rescue too, just make sure they tell you the background of the gecko and make sure it's in good condition. good luck on your search!

With a leo I would only buy from a breeder (you can find several in the classifieds here) or at a show where you can see the leo first hand.

Welcome to the forum!

Welcome!

Buy from a breeder like Wendy said... If you want to save a gecko, there's an adoption section here...

Good luck!
