New Rescued Gecko (sorry for the bad pics)

Intempesta_Nox Sep 22, 2004 12:31 AM

just adopted this baby albino rainwater gecko a few days ago. So far shes eaten about 6 mealworms in the past three days, and about 5 crickets a few days earlier. I havent kept leopards in four years, but everything is comming back to me quickly. I'd appreciate any comments or suggections, does she look healthy? skinny? should she be eating more? She currently lives in a rather small temperary aquarium with paper towel as the substrate, an under tank heater, a hide that is halfway over the heat so she can chose her temp, small water dish and mealworm dish. Shes sharing her light with my ball python. I named her Mare Imbrium, latin for sea of showers (one of the moons maria). Is there anything else I should be doing for her? Thanks for any help. (Sorry for the bad quality pictures, they were taken by my phone).

Hey!

She appears to be in rather good health as far as I can tell from the photos, good work. She seems to be eating alright, she'll just become more and more hungry eventually.

The set-up sounds great, does she have a moist hide and a dish of calcium for her to lick? Good luck with her and keep us posted, you're doing a good job.
