Now I'm looking up more about them as I know more about Cresties and Gargs.... especially as I have an insect phobia. Hopefully I'll be able to get over it! S/he is just too cute and chubby! Also wondering if it is possible to make a "live" vivarium for it. I did it for my crestie and garg and wouldn't mind figuring out how to do it for a desert terrarium...
Here it is! The clerk could not see if it was female or male. She thought it was F but after looking thinks it might be M... I don't really care one way or another but its always good to know at one point....

Cute! I've never done a planted viv for my Leo's, but have heard of others doing it. You just have to be more a bit more careful with them because they lick everything. Just make sure there's nothing small enough for them to ingest.
Re: Kakarott the carrot-tail
That's good to know! I'll have to reasearch first but I've just saw the licking in action... I'll have to see if I can turn that to my advantage in a way or another. (with the calcium intake and stuff like that)

They do say that Leo's will lick calcium from a bowl as they need it. I leave a bowl of calcium (no D3) in with mine at all times, and dust their feeders with calcium (WITH D3).

As long as he does not grow hair I should be fine! And really. he can't even get out of his temporary tub, not much he can do :P
