Leopard Gecko eating habits.

Leopard Geckos eat insects and they love to hunt their prey. Most Leopard Geckos will eat the insects from a food bowl. But, some prefer to have the insects running loose on the floor of their tank so they can hunt and eat them. Leopard Geckos are sometimes picky eaters and will prefer one type of insect over the others. The Leopard Gecko will also fast (go without food) in the adult stages and can do so for up to one month at a time. But fasting is not something your Leopard Gecko will do often. The adult Leopard Gecko will only need to eat once every other day, so don't panic if they haven't eaten in a couple of days. The Leopard Geckos tail is were they store their energy in the form of fat. The tail should be plump and the adult tail should resemble the head of the Gecko. When your Gecko is not eating the tail should remain fat and if the tail starts to get thin and loose its fatness, then you should start to keep an eye on them and if the Gecko is not eating within a day or two you should take them to the vet.

This week was a quiet one for us. Lizzy on the other hand had a lot of fun and we laughed with her. earlier this week she was on the bed with me and she decided to climb up on my head. Well, I'm bald and the minute I moved to grab her, she slid right of my head. Luckily, she landed back on the bed. Then later in the week she was trying to climb into the background picture on her tank. As you can imagine, she got very worked up trying and in the end, she had a nap to sleep it off. Lizzy has been eating regularly and has been very active. I will write again later in the week and give you an update.

Leopard Gecko Babies

We Got our Leopard Gecko as a present to our son. She has been a constant source of joy! I hope for many years to come. our children love her and wouldn't trade her for the world. but, as she is a baby and does require a little more attention than an adult but well worth the trouble. If you would like more care info check out the link below. Our geckos name is Lizzy and caring for her has been a learning experience.
