Hi. I'm a new female leopard gecko owner, and I have a question or two about their habits and feeding. My leopard Gecko, Tilly, usually stays in her Log ( Well, the FAQ called it a hide hole or something, but, you get the point,) all day and hardly ever comes out except for some crickets. Is this normal, or is there something wrong with the habitat that she is in? Im not sure what the tempature in her cage, but, I have a red light shining over her at all times. I can say its atleast 80 in there, for sure. My second question also concerns her log situation I guess you could call it. We have a drinking rock that has a water bottle that leaks out water to this little pond thing, and thats where she drinks. The problem is, I hardly ever see her drink! I fear that she's going to drop dead out of de-hydration. Also, because she stays in her log all day, I dont think she eats the Zoo Meds Leopard Gecko food, so I gave her about nine crickets today! After I read the FAQ, I was like, shoot! Will she be alright? And to be sure, I should give her four crickets a day, right? I have the diamond dust stuff for her vitamins aswell. Haha, shake and bake. Fun.



Anyway, please, help me with those issues. I really want Tilly to live a long and healthy life, and I want to help her anyway I can. Thank you if you can answer my questions.
