Meet Bilbo 🦎
My 7-8 month old Common Leopard Gecko.
I bought him when he was 2-3 months old. his regular diet at this age: Regular mealworms,every other day. 15 LgCrickets, once ever 1-2 weeks for a nice treat. Every month i do a full cage clean and new cage set up for him so he gets lots of enrichment.
Some information about Leopard Gecko's
They are Crepuscular: Which means that they most active during both dawn
and dusk (or twilight.)
Leopard gekos are great first time reptile pets for older kids, and not
recommented for small children. Leopard geckos average lifespan is 10-20
years
Handling & Playing
Most geckos do not like to be held, and prefer to walk on your hands (One hand infront of the other.) They need to be held with a lose and light grip, and Never be picked up by their tail ! or they will drop their tail as a defence mechanism. (Their dropped tail will wiggle as bait to escape.)
