These were both babies a year and a half ago when I found them.

Did you have heat and uv lamps? What did you feed them?

They don't have heat lamps right now because it's winter time and they're hibernating. They don't need UV light because they're nocturnal, even though I still do have some UV light on during the day just like in the wild. They're mostly fed crickets and meal worms.

Those are very nice geckos you have there. I'm sorry I can't help you because I'm not familiar with geckos.

 

I like the hideout you made. Very minimalist and clean. How's it holding up?

I'm not using that anymore since I kind of made it specifically for the female that I thought was gravid. For a while now they've just been living under a little artificial rock/food bowl.

That's too bad. He must have been an older male. I think these can get to around 10 years.


I believe drew stated earlier in this journal that he collected these as babies.

Here's my leopard gecko/ant youtube: https://goo.gl/cRAFbK

 

My ant website.

It contains a lot of information about ants, guides, videos, links, and more!

If you have any feedback, please post here or PM me, don't be shy!

 

I currently keep:

Camponotus modoc

Formica podzolica
