My Geckos

[Esfa]

Well i got these off an absolutely awful breeder, who was keeping them on sand when new born!
So I bought them at 4 days old... naughty, i know. They were smaller then my little finger!

Apparently they wernt heated when incubated, so i'm guessing i have females.

Ice at 2 weeks old. My mack snow

Viper at 2 weeks old. Looks like a normal, but probably het for mack snow, as Ice is her sister.

both of them at 2 weeks old.

Ice with a new hair do at 4 weeks old.

Viper at 4 weeks


and my corn, cause I like showing her off

Yeah, the legs are like toothpicks! I was so scared to touch them encase they broke!

They do look very delicate !!!!! Are they quite easy to keep......I really went for Cresties cos you don't have to feed bugs which suits me fine although they do get them once or twice a week for a treat.

really easy to keep. try mealworms if you dont like the crickets... most leos will accept them. I breed them, its really easy... get a tub with a tight lid, have about 4" of corn flakes/ weetabix / rice crispies etc.. in there, and then just put some fresh fruit/veg in now and again and they'll happily breed lol.

That sounds a better option......and great if you can breed them too. Never realised it was that easy. What about the gut loaded crickets and dusting and stuff?

I didnt realise it was easy, either. Crickets are apparently much harder, and they SMELL!

Yeh.. gutloading is just feeding them veg and stuff, and then you have to dust all food with pure calcium, and then dust now and again with vitamins (Nutrabol is the best one). Most people do the vitamins once a week.
