LOL...Thanks for the response.



We already have the whole set up ready to go, in fact we have a few options depending on age/size. We have a 55gln Terrarium, a 20gln long as well as some Sterilite 11qt tubs set up in racks. All are hooked up to Flexwatt and Helix thermostats which are holding a hot spot of 90F. Ambient temps are 80/82F during the day and 75F during the night. I've got the feeder and water bowls, hides, humid hides, etc, etc. I'm using slate for the 55gln and 20gln, if I find yearlings. But, will use paper towels in the tubs if I find juvis.



I'm a newbie to Leopard Geckos, but I have 70 Boas and Pythons and have kept and bred a number of snakes for over a decade. I've been reading up for the past 2-3 weeks, but have found a lot of information that varies from person to person or thread to thread, same goes for prices. I'm all set on the basic care requirements and set up, just wondering what trio is in my price range? We like the Hybinos and the Blizzards, but I'm wondering what else is out there withing the budget I have set.



To be honest, the Leos are for my 10yr old daughter and this is her project. With that said, I don't want to drop $6000 on a trio of Leos just yet...LOL.
