laziness

Well, I keep mine in a 5'x2.5' tank. Alicewave, she definetely isn't stressed out and doesn't spazz, she is always walking around the tank looking for extra crickets or just exploring. Whenever I wiggle my fingers by her hide opening she comes out with her big cute eyes looking around. And when I put some crickets in she runs all over the place with her tail wiggling, it is hilarious. I moved her from her 35 gallon tank because she was always trying to climb up the sides and never seemed to be happy. As soon as I moved her in to the 5x2.5 she has been overall healthier, brighter, and seems happier. I don't know what she would do if she was kept in a 10 gallon tank or a shoe box.

Ok I was just checking because Murtle seemed more active in the 20 but she ended up not eating. That's when I realized she was stressed and moving her down to the 10 she returned to normal. I guess it depends on the gecko. 10 is plenty of room for 1 adult though.

Yea, I guess it does depend on the gecko. I think people should at least let their leo live in a larger tank for awhile, just to see if they like it more then a small one. Afterall, we all want our leos to be as happy as possible, right? And I do think an adult should have at least a 20 gallon tank, but thats just my opinion.

i up'ed the heat source so it goes bout 5 degrees higher in the hot end. and i gave neo a handling session again. he was way more active and trusting. i held him on my hand at eye level and closed one eye and he did the same. it was great. he changed pooping spots on me again but it'll pass as usual. i thought bout it more and i think the problem might've just been the need to shed.
