same! I recently did the same and I've been watching videos daily and practicing to make sure my leopard geckos are as good as can be. At first I was super worried about getting them impulsively, but then I saw your comment and felt instant relief 😌😌

[@Cyndarion0ne]

Never impulse buy animals! Never 👏 impulse 👏 buy 👏 animals 👏 Just no In the future practice patience and educate yourself or those around you BEFORE getting the animals, before you could have easily killed it within the month if all you understand is that it needed water and bugs. Safe rule of thumb is don't get an animal with a lifespan of more than a mouse if you aren't willing to adapt to it or the commitments because that's cruel.

[@ssapphire7781]

Please! Do not impulsively buy animals! If you do not know how to properly care for it, and have not done extensive research, you could be missing important parts of their care! Please be careful.

I've had my new leopard gecko for about a week now and my thermostat came in the post last night. As soon as I set it up and the heat mat cooled down to the perfect temp, she went straight to her warm hide and passed out. Your videos have been SO helpful in getting my new gecko settled in. Thanks!

[@anthonytashijian6201]

@LeopardGecko I'm pretty sure you can change temp with it because a buddy of mine has a heat mat for his corn snake and he uses lamp dimmers to control the heat. He's no professional though, so he might just be an idiot XD.

[@alexandriasimmerman1210]

Anthony Tashijian lol

[@AlucardRawks]

That's very true! You can also use aquarium lighting if you must (quite a few come with controllers to change colour of the light etc). Doesn't give off much heat, if any, and so long as you can check the temp of your viv and have a thermostat you can lower the temp of your mat if the light causes it to rise much. Just be sure to turn the lights off when it gets dark outside.

[@abbieelizabeth8545]

[@BloodyFirstMongoyl]

Manny leopardgecko books tell me to give them 10 cm of claysand? (Because the want to dig) but on youtube everyone says, not to use sand, pls help!!!

[@itsshinoh4745]

Leopard geckos will sometimes eat sand get paper towels or Eco earth or reptile carpet is the best

[@wwcutiepie]

BloodyFirstMongoyl Leopard geckos will eat the sand and get something called impaction which requires surgery if caught on time because the geckos can't pass the sand.

[@gabbycook2989]

For a dig box you should use flaxseed, alfalfa pellets, or dried veggies.

Isn't a heat mat bad? Because in nature the sun comes frome the top and the geckos are going under the ground to get colder?

[@leopardgeckotalk]

nope. heat mats are perfect since leos take their heat in through their bellies.

[@UnlikeVarjak]

I used wood chippings for my Gecko for years, no problem had come to it but I'm planning to change some in the near future

[@trulsdirio]

I use natural stone tiles on the floor, as they are really hygienic and do give off heat they collect during the day at nicght, also no heater but therfore a spotlight that heats the terrarium up to 34°C in one spot. Another tihing I did is building a backside with caves and platforms to climb, out of styrofoam and tile glue, works great! But as long as they have places to hide and are kept warm, they will be fine, the extra effort was more to make it visually pleasing to my eye!

[@fionashepley478]

I'd get a heat mat

My Leopard Gecko is named Waldo.. He's a male.. I wanna say he's roughly around 3 years old? But anyways i put a good amount of plants in his tank, because at night (He's nocturnal lol) all he does is CLIMB. So if your lizard usually climbs alot.. I would get a tree type thing with room in it. And a open hole in the top, so you can get a suction cup bridge type deal, stick it to the tree and then stick the end to a place where it loves to climb. I did this and he LOVES it XD. So this is a very big recommendation for your lizard ^~^

[@fionashepley478]

Yes, you can. You could make one out of foam (not sure exactly how, but it would be fun, I want to do that). You could also use some sort of container; just make sure the hole you cut has tape around the edges so the they aren't sharp and that the container is a good size (not cramped, not too spacey) and that it isn't too exposed.
