thinking about getting leos

can i keep leos in rubbermade contaniers? how big?
any breeders i should look into?

Leos are fun, I have about 30 breeders. Usually I keep them individually in 16qt tubs on paper towels with a moist hide. As for breeders, it really depends on which morphs you are looking to get into. :)

i dont know anything about the different morphs. how do you heat the tub? do you have any pics?

You heat the tubs with heat tape, just like you would with ball pythons. You can use the same rack systems too. The racks you see on Boaphile and Animal Plastics can all be used for leos too. Of course, you can always make your own rack too. But if you want to start out with just one animal as like a pet, you could go with the old aquarium and under tank heater method. Idk if I'm allowed to mention other forums here, but there are leo forums so you can google them :)

I have a homemade rack with 16 QT tubs. Check out http://www.leopardgeckowiki.com

I would pay about $20 each for them if they are normals like that.
