lizards are next on the list!! (Combined thread)

Only reason I use roaches, I already breed them for Monitor food, so it's super convenient.

Besides, watching Leo chase a big roach, then chow it down is cool.

They are so awesome when they put their "hunter face" on
How big are the roaches? Some leos nom down pretty well on bigger prey, but its not completely safe to feed them anything bigger than the space between their eyes.

I use the jumbo roaches for my Savannah monitor, so Leo gets juvi roaches.

I just want to mention to all Canadian residents who think roaches are a good idea is that they are considered pests so they are not legal to own. Everyone should ensure that their local by-laws aren't broken.

Im getting a leopard gecko in april. Im going to Quebec and when I come back I finally get my lizard. Im getting two so should I get a Male and a Female or just two Females.

[emilybier]

I would say getting two males and housing separately would be the easiest thing to start out. Females lay seasonally and they can become egg-bound. However, females tend to keep weight better. Either way you shouldn't house together unless they are two females of the same size and you have to quarantine for about 6 weeks when you get them anyway. They don't always house well together either.
