African Fat-tails are pretty similiar in care to leopard geckos, with the exception that they need more humidity. I put mine on cyprus mulch and mist them regularly. The rest of the care is the same as a Leopard gecko. If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me.

here is a link to a page where you can find several different care sheets on AFT's. Basically they all say the same or similar thing. More humidity is needed for AFTs than for Leo's. Just watch that you dont have a soggy wet bottom or they will get mouth rot. Just damp to the touch. I mist mine a few times a day.
