The cage being to damp or being to unclean. You should check their is nothing rotting and no poo's that you havn't cleaned up.
a desert-like habitat. If you are setting up a cage for a leopard gecko, make sure it has a warm side and a cool side with a hut on each side. Leopard Geckos come from deserts in places like Afghanistan, India, and many other places
Never mix species that would not normally be found together in their natural habitat ! Those two species belong in Africa and Asia respectively.
Leopard geckos are solitary creatures. They should be housed individually unless breeding or housing females of similar size and age together. Even when housing females, sometimes there can be bullying within the tank and you must monitor to be sure there is nothing happening.
Yes they can eat some types of fruit. I occasionally cut a grape in half and leave it in the geckos cage they will lick it.
Yes, first see if the two get along, if so than yes they can be housed together.
Yes. But I only recommend placing 3 in the cage.
Well, you're probably in for a surprise. In other words, your leopard gecko is pregnant! If you've never had any other leopard geckos in the aquarium (or wherever you keep it) then the egg will never hatch, it's just a cycle some leopard geckos go through, and is not uncommon. No need to worry, just remove the egg; but if you have had another leopard gecko in the cage before, it was probably a male, even if you thought otherwise, as this can be tricky. If this is so, you should put a small container of fresh aspen shavings or the moss you can get, but not the sand (this can be hazardous for baby leopard geckos). Hopefully, your gecko will lay her egg in the container, and you should remove that and place them in an incubator (directions at http://www.albeysreptiles.com/incubate-eggs.htm). Continue to follow the directions at that website, and you will find what you need. If the eggs are not in the container, carefullyremove the eggs by taking all that is under it and gently placing it in the container. Try to incubate them, following the directions given earlier, but it will normally be too late by then. Hope your hatchlings-to-be will do well!
shamwow.
The only times I know that they are aggressive are: 1. when you put a different type of gecko in the same tank. (I have heard of some that are ok) 2. if you put two male leopard geckos together. (females are normally ok) 3. they are very aggressive to crickets! :)
Leopard geckos are able to be transported at short distances in a Tupperware container approximately shoe sized or bigger. Be sure to include a substrate for the transportation and oxygen flow. Holes will need to be cut into the container. If the animal is going to be shipped long distances, they must be professionally wrapped with Styrofoam fit pieces and heat packs and is not recommended for the avid hobbyist.
No they shouldn't 'fight' as long as their is no big size difference. And you are sure It is only the one boy. If you see the boy bitting the females sides or tails this is a sign of mating!
leopard geckos are known to be pets with a good grade in aroma. It is probably that you are not taking good care of it; scooping their wastes, cleaning their cage once a week, and taking out all dead crickets, mealworms, ect. If you do this, they should smell perfectly fine. If not, you may want to ask a vet.
