How do you introduce your leopard gecko with another leopard gecko?

Leopard Geckos are solitary reptiles. Only bonding with the opposite sex during breeding season. Females CAN be housed together so long as they are all roughly the same size and weight. Any animal being introduced to one another must have been through the quarantine period.

"Quarantine is defined as the isolation period a new or sick Leopard gecko should go through before it is introduced to other geckos. It is meant to prevent the transmission of clinical and sub-clinical diseases from one Leopard gecko to another. If a gecko is still healthy after the Leopard gecko quarantine period it will exclude the probability of having a disease and it can be safely transferred to a vivarium with other animals."

After Quarantine, a leopard gecko may be introduced to another.

Some info that will provide useful

Male leopard geckos can not be housed together. Males will fight one another to prove dominance. Tails will be nipped and possibly fall off. The smaller males being bullied could stress, this will promote starvation and death.

Females can be housed with a single male for extended periods. Males co-existing with females will breed all 12months of the year. Being over bred will decrease their lifespan and also drain the female of calcium.

Why do frogs or geckos have suction cups?

Geckos have 'suction cups' so they can climb up walls, trees, rocks, and anything else they can climb. Geckos can even climb up sheer, polished glass at a 90 degree angle! Although the Geckos' feet have toepads, that are not actually like suction cups that you might think. The Gecko can climb due to hundreds of thousands of incredibly fine, microscopic hairs that line their foot pads. Each hair has two suction cups at the end of it, each cup about 20,320,000 cm in diameter (8 millionths of an inch). Due to advances in modern science, scientists have even developed a material similar to a geckos' hairs. This material (although under much progress) may some day allow people to climb up walls as well.

What do yellow bellied geckos eat?

The yellow-bellied glider of Australia primary feeds on eucalypt sap and nectar. It also feed on insects such as crickets; pollen from eucalypts, turpentine and banksia trees; manna and lerps; and honeydew (a substance secreted from sap sucking bugs which is then licked from branches by the animal). A yellow-bellied glider will very cleverly obtain the eucalypt sap by making a V-shaped incision with its lower incisors into the trunk bark.

Do Geckos hibernate?

Can a female leopard gecko have babies without a male?

A female leopard gecko will lay eggs every 4-6 weeks during the spring and summer (mating season) regardless of them being fertilized or not. Much like a chicken laying eggs, they ovulate periodically throughout the year. If the female has not been introduced to a male, the eggs will be a "dud" meaning there is no live gecko inside the egg. In most cases, these eggs will become shriveled up and decompose within the terrarium and not too many keepers even notice them in there.

If you do find that your leopard gecko is laying duds, it's best to offer them a higher protein/fatty diet. Their calcium levels will deplete over time due to the extra calcium going into their eggs. Offer dusted wax worms or butter worms during the ovulation season.
