What do leopard geckos do when they are mad?

If your gecko has been stresses, there must be a reason e.g cage to crowded or to small. It may stop eating and drinking. It wont sleep and will constantly be moving around never resting and will start to dig in the corners of the tank, and try to climb up the side like you see them doing in the pet shops.


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)


What kind of vegatation does a leopard gecko eat?

Leopard geckos are strictly insectivores relying on insects and creepy crawlies for nutrients. I have heard of some leopard geckos feeding on repashy meal replacement powder. Try coating your crickets with this powder to get the leopard gecko customed to it first. then provide it in a bowl once or twice a month as a treat.


Will a leopard gecko eat a frog?

In the wild, a leopard gecko would not encounter a frog, therefore it should not be fed frogs in captivity. As a hobbyist, we are trying to replicate their natural environment. In most cases, feeders must be no larger than the space between the animals eyes and most frogs are much larger than that.


What lizard type can you house with a leopard gecko in a large tank?

You are only supposed to put them with other leopard geckos. Other types of lizards will try to hurt them, or the other way around. NEVER mix species unless (a) they're found naturally co-existing in the wild and (b) one species is not prey to the other!

Why do leopard gecko lizards squeal?

This is really a simple question, they bite because they are scared or feel discomfort and they bite to protect themselfs. If you having a problem taming your leopard gecko take it one step at a time don't rush into it. start by just sticking your hand in the cage (not near the gecko) and when he gets used to that get closer and closer when you feel like he is uncomfterble back your hand away, after that try seeing if he will climb in your hand, if not get a small dark box or somthing to climb in and let him get in it (on his own time) and pick up the box let him climb out (this might scare him/her) and scope the gecko up in your hands after your geckos gets used to that you should know what to do next! (you should not take you gecko out of its cage every day once every two weeks is quite enough leopard geckos have sentisive skin) i hope that answer your question

How do you know if a lizard is hungry?

The best way to see if a baby leopard gecko is eating is to watch after the food has been placed inside the tank. Many times the gecko's will eat as soon as the crickets are put inside the tank.
