What a cute little guy. You could call him Audi. (it sounds like "outie", hahaha! & it actually means "listen!" in German)

I actually named my first crested gecko baby Lucky. Haha, I guess we both have good taste.

Re: Leopard gecko breeding questions
Good news! I tried to feed the lil guy last night after he shed, but I wasn't sure if he got anything. But today I just watched him eat his first waxworm! I figured the high fat content would help him gain some weight, and if he refuses plain crickets after this I can squeeze waxworm juice onto them or something.

That's great! I would definitely try to get him onto something healthier but eating waxworms is better than nothing.

Re: Leopard gecko breeding questions
Definately. I'm not thinking I'll give him any more, I just wanted him to gain a little weight, and he wasn't fast enough for crickets.

I think that was a good decision-

Also, in the future, if a gecko has trouble catching crickets you can put the crickets in the fridge for a short time (5-10 minutes) and they will slow down. It's perfectly humane (cooling the temperature is the standard way to euthanize inverts) and it will slow them down enough where it's very easy for the gecko to catch them. They will speed back up as they warm up but they would still be slowed down for a while.

Re: Leopard gecko breeding questions
Over the past few days the lil guy hasn't been eating a ton, but I think he ate more last night and he pooped and it was larger than it was before. So far, so good! I don't think I told, you yet, but ater his first shed I moved him to his shoebox outside of the incubator.

Re: Leopard gecko breeding questions
I've noticed Rex has been staying in his humid hide when he's not exploring/hunting. I think that's because his humid hide is more secure feeling, but I'm concerned he's not getting warm enough since the bottom of the humid hide is thick ceramic, and that he's breathing too much water since it's a humid hide. I'm considering replacing it with a less secure tupperware container so he actually gets warm enough. What do you think?
