Temperatures and Humidity: | Right now my temperture is 80-84 and some people say thats about right for the warm side and the cold side should b around 74-78 |
Heating and Equipment: | I have a heating mat but it sucks so i just use my light and that seems to do the trick. |
Caging Provided: | Ok i used to have a small 10 gallon tank but sence i got another gecko, my step dad gave me his 40 gallon fish tank. For flooring i used this recycled paper, a man at the petstore said it is highly recamended because its comepletely safe. |
Diet: | Carnivorous |
Description of Diet: | I am only feeding my gecko crickets. I have heard that the mealworms turn into little cockroaches thingys and that is discusting. I am having trouble feeding the crickets to him because if i just let the crickets out he wont see them. so i have to feed it by hand and hopefully next month i wont. |
Supplements, Nutrition and Usage: | I use a vitamin powder called fluker and its supposed to give it a ton of nutriations to make the gecko alot more active and for its color to come out more. I also feed my crickets the fluckers orenge gut load, they eat it up! |
Maintenance: | I hardly ever get to play with my gecko because everytime im there hes asleep and i heard that if u bother it too much espeically when its alseep it will cause it stress and stress could kill it. |
Some Words on this Species: | I think that gecko are freakin awsome and they are a damn good pet.. Im hoping to get a male in mayb a couple of months so they can mate and have more albino geckos!!. Please im very new at caring for these reptiles and dont listen to everything i say, IF ANYBODY IS VERY GOOD AT CARING FOR AN ALBINO GECKO PLEASE EMAIL ME AT Aaron0301@aol.com PEACE! |
