we get Eddie Lizzard our lovely sunglow gecko from the shop tonight, got his viv all set up, been running it for a week to get things set up right, done a boat load of reading and we're fairly confident we know what we're doing.

very very excited to be bringing him home! :good:
 
Very exciting. Love his name, it's very cute. Look forward to some pics.

:good:
 
will do, I'll see if I'm any better at getting pics of Lizards than I am at getting pics of fish..... :rolleyes:
 
the set up's looking fairly good if i do say so myself!! it's a 30"x15"x15" viv, got beech chippings as a substrate, got some nice bits of wood and stuff in to give cover, two bits of bark which make proper hides for him, got a tupperware with peat moss for his moist hide but we've hidden it so when you look at the tank front on you can't see it, got some real plants in there too. we want it to look as natural as possible although we recognise this won't be 100% possible! we've had to resort to some fake ivy stuff as we felt it needed something a bit trail and we can't work out what real plant would grow in ther to do that yet, also the food and water bowls are plasticy but not terrible...

we picked him up this morning, he seemed fine, had a small explor then dissapeard off into one of the hides and we haven't seen him since!! I know I should just leave him to settle in in his own time, but i also wanna see him and make sure he's ok so i'm tempted to try and lure him out with some crickets.... reckon i should or not?
 
well update, when the lights went out on the viv he came out straight away and had a good old explore, he's not eaten yet but he had a drink and has been wandering round checking out his new home.... seems absolutley fine.

tried for a couple of pics but my camera phones a bit pants, will upload them later
 
The lack of pictures in this thread is annoying me.



















:D
 
lol, will sort some out soon. house is in pieces at the moment cos we're re-decorating so I can't get at the computer easily to upload the pics (on my work laptop at the moment, can't upload pics onto it)
