Hi all,
Im from Grimsby and i have got a Leopard Gecko recently via someone i used to with with on facebook.
He put the add on there that it he is 3 years old and is fully grown.
And comes with

2.5ft viv
heat mat
heat lamp
hollowed out log
a cave
resovior
and a bit of what looks like drift wood.

The guys said it was his sons and he has now gone to uni so has been left with it and now really needs the room more than anything. Also the poor Geckos tank was on top of a guitar amp >_<

He said that the heat mat + lamp need to be on 24/7
In his viv there seems to be quite a few meal worm in there with him and a few that look like v small black things running about and 1 black cricket. Should i wait for him to eat the black cricket that is in there with him?

Gecko has been with me since sunday and have not seen much of him as i thnk he getting used to his new viv localtion around him. He has also shed his skin in the last 24 hours also and there is still some left on his head but i did not want to get to much involved with him as of yet while he is still getting used to me some more.

They guy who i got him from did not seem to really know much or care about him that much so im really pleased i borugh him home with me, and what to give him a really good home and care that he needs. Any tips or info on what i put would be great.

Thanks in advance
