Housing

Here is a list of recommended objects for keeping your leos:

Flat pack vivarium, 36", 24" or 48", think ahead , how many do you plan on having in there, not just now, in the future, the leo virus is easy to catch :>)

1/2 Leos: 24" 2 0r 3:36", 3-6;48"

From £54.99 at Livefood.co.uk, click on the image.

Substrate is very complicated to advise, I use Lizard Litter or Calci Sand, but Lizard litter is quite dangerous so go for Calci-Sand for leos over 6" and for under 6" go for paper towel, or ask at your local reptile shop.

DO NOT USE CALCI-SAND WITH LEOPARD GECKOS UNDER 6" LONG AS IT CAN CAUSE GUT IMPACTION.

About £6.00 from Livefood.co.uk

Waterdish

Virtually anything can be used but just to be safe you can use this from Livefood for only £2.35 for a small dish.

Heating

Quite expensive but essential, aim to cover 1/2 to 1/3 of the vivarium with heat, for example for a 24" vivarium get an 11"x11", for 11"x11" it will cost £12.95 from Livefood

Dont forget a thermometer £4.10 for this one, Livefood.co.uk
ALSO.... Add some hides for your leo, this is very important, as they are nocturnal and will lurk in their hides during daylight hours. These can be homemade, dont forget though
