I posted this on the reptillian but no responses



I'am planning on getting a leopard gecko once my corn is big enough for a 3ft Viv.

So i'am doing my research early so i'am 100% ready.
I have read the care sheet, i was just wondering if once it is older is a 2/2.5ft viv big enough, also how often do they need fed and what is the best to feed it as i know eating just one type of insect everytime is not a staple enough diet.
Lastly what humidity and temp range are they comfy in

Thanks
Gary

If I were you I'd google leopard gecko forums and see what it comes up with. You would get a much more targetted audience. I know some of our members do keep geckos so you may get some help if they're reading posts toay. Good luck!

Did you?
Why did no one notice, is very weird.

I have 1 in a 2ft viv at the moment, and another in a 50L rub.

One of them eats a mix of dubia roaches, crix, the occasional waxie and small locust. The other has nothing but tubefed puree'd high calcium waxies.

The one in the rub has temps in the warm end of around 30-31c, cool end can be anything down to about 12 or 13c depending on room temp.
The one in the viv has temps at the 28-29c mark, cool end roughly the same.
Both are heated by mat and stat.
