I will get pics up tomorrow...but have a few questions for now....
First let me say that the tank that this beautiful animal was in was "extremely filthy" and it stunk worse than an uncleaned litter box!!! Got everything sanitized and dried. It is a girl She must have had 3 inches of nasty sand and an inch of filth on top of that...the water dish was really really gross.
Ok....so she really seems to be healthy Not to bad with handling...had to move her out of the tank to clean it.....seeing as she has not been regularly handled for years now.
I have put her on paper towels...has a couple rocks in there and a branch with leaves...a rock water bowl and I put in a dish of calcium, a few crickets and some leo food that they had....Plan on picking up some meal worms tomorrow. I have a jar of vita life vitamin powder that came with her....is this ok to dust the crickets with? I read in a post here that if I dust the crickets to not dust the meal worms and that I can just leave a bowl of meal worms in the tank and replace as she eats....Is this right?
Also how long do leos live? This girl is 8-10 years old!
Ok so maybe she is not so good with being handled. Decided I could not wait to post pics and picked her up for the hubby to take a pic and she swung around out of nowhere and latched on to my finger LMAO....didn't hurt just freaked the crap out of me...got her off my finger and she attempted to eat my finger 2 more times!! Can any one tell me what kind of leo she is?? Thanks for any and all answers...Oh she does not have a name yet???
