Mazonic Posted January 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Na i got one off trademe and the persons going to send in to me when i get back from holidays! can the log be used as the humid hide? cheers :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dougstark Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 can the log be used as the humid hide? cheers :bounce: Maybe not the best, being so open it may dry out too quick. I use icecream containers with a hole cut in the side or lid, tho they wont look great in your setup. Maybe you can hide one with your plants and rocks etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reptilenutt Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 How old is the leo ?? You may need to use handy towel till it gets a bit bigger ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morcs Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 id say enclosures bigger than necessary you could keep 4 in there very comfortably i think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 I use icecream containers with sphagnum moss as well. They need to stay damp. It would be OK for 4. Do you have a thermostat or one of those dimmer type things that you can't set at a given temperature? Thermostat is best by far. I think ceramic heat emitters are best.

alanmin4304 Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Buy the dead (dry) stuff then wet it with warm water and squeeze out the excess. I can't see from the pics but you should have vents for a bit of fresh air---are there vents in the top? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazonic Posted January 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Over half of the top is vents so should be okay! cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 Sounds good. Have you got lots of live food or deep pockets. Don't forget to coat live food with calcium powder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazonic Posted January 17, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 starting by getting crickets off a friend who breed excess ! the breeding my own and also some meal worms! what calcium powder is best for leopard geckos? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted January 17, 2012 Report Share Posted January 17, 2012 I use flukers with vit D3. It is fine and sticks well to mealworms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
