OK, I just did something today that I HATE to do, I adopted an animal on impulse.
I went to Petco today to pick up some Crested Gecko Diet, and mentioned to the reptile person that I wanted to get a Leo one day. She said "oh, we have one in the back that's up for adoption - it lost its tail, so we can't sell it, would you like it?" Called Karl, because he really liked the Leo's in Daytona and asked him if I should get it. He gave the ok, and home I came and panicked! LOL
Thank you to Emily through talking me through everything I needed to get this little one set up. I think it's a girl, I can't see any of the anal spores at all, but she may be too young to see just yet.
From my quick study today, to me she looks like she's probably a month old? Would you guys agree?
This "free" gecko ended up costing me darn near $80 to get her set up correctly. Any critiques are welcome!
Enclosure as I'm waiting for temps to get set:
Here she is, less than impressed with me, as I had to soak her to get some stuck shed off her feet. And she also pooped on me, and Joanna's busy IMing me - do you have pictures yet? How about now? Now? Don't ever tell Joanna you got a new pet - she'll hound you for pictures! LOL
And I'm out of here!
