Hi. I just bought my first geckos at a reptile show today. They are 3 little leopard geckos. The lady told me some of the basics to the care, she said: 1) Give them hides. 2) Only heat one side of the cage. 3) Keep it 80-85 degrees. 4) Always keep food and water with them, but don't over feed.



I also have snakes, so I know some of the basics of reptile care, in general. But geckos are new to me and I was wondering if anyone else had any other advice that may be helpful to me.



Also, one of them keeps licking me and I was wondering why they do this.



Thanks,



-Drako
