Feed them two or three medium to large worms at a time. Worms are good for turtles, but they are omnivores and need a varied diet so don't make it the only food. Water turtles will eat cooked shredded meats, meal worms, greens like dark green romaine and dandelion greens, which you can float on the surface of their water (and greens make cute hats, as you'll see if they end up on the turtles head as it emerges from the water) and turtle sticks, which contain vitamins. The same rule goes for box turtles and tortoises, too.

Worms are like candy to turtles and can be harmful if they are the only food, so change it up!

Do leopard gecko's attack each other?

Actually they can and will attack each other. I found one of my leopard geckos dead because the other one attacked it. Its tail was pulled off and its front legs were missing. You are seriously mistaken when you believe they will not attack each other. It is survival of the fittest.


Can a Leopard Gecko be introduced to a new Leopard Gecko?

Unless they are juveniles, I advise you not to introduce adult Leopard Geckos. It can get the Gecko who got into the vivarium first quite stressed which can kill it. If they are juveniles, though, they will be OK together. However, you should NEVER put two males together, even if they are juvenile, as they would fight to the death of one another. Two females or a male and female who have been together since juveniles will be fine, but anything else could end up with a dead Gecko. P.S. I have two Geckos of my own who have been with each other since a very young age too. Beware that some animals are quite solitary like these kind of Lizards.

What happens if you put to different species of gecko in one tank?

90% of the time the two species do not require the same care. In most cases, people will try to house a leopard gecko with a crested gecko. Leopard geckos live in heat reaching 105F each day with up to 14 hours of light and 0% humidity, very dry. The crested gecko live in temps never exceeding 80F with 10-12hours of sunlight and up to 90% humidity. One of the species is guaranteed death depending on what the setup of the tank is (desert or tropical)
