Ok, so a quick update. My Leos are now a healthy 2.5 months old and a length of 5.5 inches. I am going to go get the dimmer today annd a replacement bulb (butterfingers happenned and I dropped one ) I will check on my camera and TRY and find a memory card reader so I can take pics and post them on here for everyone to see. Wish me luck everyone. I deffinately think I have 2 Males cause I can see a slight bump and I think one is getting his black pores around his pelvic area. Will try to take pics so I can be sure. Ok, I will keep you all posted. So I just got home from shopping and one of my Leos looks like it just finished shedding and one has just started, I am so happy. The one that is shedding now is going through his second shed since I got him. YAYYY!!!
By special request here are my babies: Fred and Barney. Fred is beginning to shed in the pics, but all were taken today http://i554.photobucket.com/albums/jj439/D...os/P1010002.jpg http://i554.photobucket.com/albums/jj439/D...os/P1010003.jpg http://i554.photobucket.com/albums/jj439/D...os/P1010004.jpg http://i554.photobucket.com/albums/jj439/D...os/P1010001.jpg
Thanks a bunch! I just watched Fred shed a little, does anyone actually know the reason why they eat their skin?
Because in the wild it would be foolish to waste the nutrients! There are still good nutrients in the skin, and in a world where your next potential meal could be hours or weeks away, you dont let anything go to waste
oh, and they are goregous! Look nice and healthy, you have been doing a great job with them. I LOVE Barneys markings - nice bright yellow with those really dark black spots, he is stunning
Ok, so I have noticed something very wierd and a little creepy. I keep my geckos in my room and I have noticed for a few nights that one of my geckos stares at me while I am in bed. Its wierd, kinda funny yet creepy. But they are still nice and healthy and fat.
So a quick update, all is well in geck land (heehee). Ok so here is my question, I deffinately see a bump and where the pores turn black I do see a "V" shape but it isnt dark in color yet. Do I have 2 males for sure?
Probably - if you are seeing a bump and pores. if they are still together (I cant remember - i think you separted them?) then separated them now just to be sure. If they are already separated then just keep an eye on them and soon you will know for sure :-D glad they are doing so well!!
Yeah, my gecko stares at me too. Especially when I'm sittin' at my computer desk which is right next to his cage. XD It usually means he's hungry.
I think I may have the most laziest geckos around, one waits for the food to come to it and the other is active at night but can be active during the day. Fred has had his second shed in a month Barney has shed also. I am very happy how my Leos are growing.
Haha! Yeah! I left the red light on last night, and I was watching my leo, and he was looking at me, then i turned his red light off, and in about 4-5 minutes I hear feet moving!
For who ever wants to see my smallest gecko Geroge here is his picture (I know he isn't a Leo but hes cute) http://i554.photobucket.com/albums/jj439/D...s/LilGeorge.jpg To let you all know about the condition of my Leos. All are healthy and growing like weeds. I got them on the 29th of December and they already went through 2 sheds. They are still too young to sex them but I will let you all know who is really a male and who is a female if I have one. Hmm, not really much to say, they are being silly and letting the crix crawl on them but they will probably be gone by the end of the night. If not I will attempt to take them out of leave them in if there isnt a lot in there. Hmm, I do believe that is all for now.
