tangelo leopard gecko diet

Tangelo Leopard Gecko Diet

tangerine leopard gecko for sale Water is essential for a reptile’s health and well-being. A shallow dish of clean, fresh water must be provided at all times in the cool end. This must be cleaned and replaced at least daily and immediately if it is soiled. Feeding Leopard geckos mainly feed on invertebrates in the wild. In captivity, feed a varied diet of live invertebrates, called ‘livefood’. These include crickets, ‘calciworms’ and locusts, no bigger than the size of the gecko’s head. Feed waxworms sparingly as they are high in fat. Juveniles should be fed daily; adults every other day. You can also offer a washed dandelion or nasturtium flower once a month to supplement the diet. It is a good idea to weigh your gecko regularly. Feed in a separate container to prevent the gecko swallowing the substrate. If you feed in the vivarium, remove uneaten bugs to prevent them biting the gecko. It is vital that live invertebrates are fed a good diet, for their own wellbeing and because the nutrients will be passed on to the gecko. This process is called ‘gut-loading’. Provide them with dry cereal food, or special foods available from pet shops. Also, include fresh leaves such as dandelion to keep them hydrated. The captive environment does not supply all of the vitamins and minerals available in the wild, so supplements are required. Livefood should be lightly dusted with a vitamin and calcium supplement immediately before being offered to the gecko. Vitamins and minerals can be overdosed so always follow the instructions of the chosen brand. For example, with a well-set UV system, you will not need to supply a lot of vitamin D3. You should also provide a small bowl of plain calcium powder at all times for them to lick. Store supplements in a cool, dry place to keep them fresh.

tangerine albino leopard gecko shelter

Tangerine Albino Leopard Gecko Shelter

For ease of cleaning and health purposes we recommend using a paper substrate such as newspaper, butcher/packing paper or paper towel. DO NOT use sand as this can cause the gecko to be impacted within their digestive track should they ever ingest it.

Leopard geckos are nocturnal so shelters within their enclosure will provide them with a peaceful retreat to sleep or hide in. These can be as elaborate as you like or can be as simple as a plastic container turned upside down with a door cut into it to allow the geckos passage. At least one of these hide areas should be kept moist, to assist the shedding process, using damp paper towel or moss. We recommend putting the dry shelter close to the heat source while the moist hide is placed at the cool end.

tangerine albino leopard gecko heating

Tangerine Albino Leopard Gecko Heating

It is best for the heat to be provided from below. In the case of a glass enclosure you can use an under tank heater, while the breeder’s best option for a rack system is heat cable or heat tape controlled by a thermostat. Because reptiles are cold-blooded and rely on their environment to control body temperature it is important that the heat source remains at approximately 90F and is situated at one end. This will give the gecko the ability to thermo regulate by moving from the heat source to a cooler area of the enclosure ranging in the high 70’s to low 80’s. In other words do not heat the entire enclosure. Leopard geckos should be exposed to light for 10-12 hours per day but because they are nocturnal they do not require a UVB light.

tangerine leopard gecko caging

Tangerine Leopard Gecko Caging

tangerine leopard gecko for sale A 10- to 20-gallon aquarium houses one or two leopard geckos from hatchling to adult size. Larger tanks tend to cause the geckos to stray away from their proper heat and hide box. Although visibility is reduced, many people use plastic storage boxes as housing. Any cage you choose should be at least 1 foot tall. Be sure to have a secure screen top on your gecko cage that will support a light fixture and provide good ventilation. A hide box filled with moist moss or vermiculite is needed, so your leopard gecko can shed its skin properly. This secure setting also is needed for egg laying if you plan on breeding geckos.

tangerine leopard gecko lighting

Tangerine Leopard Gecko Lighting

tangerine leopard gecko for sale

The best way to heat your leopard gecko is by using an undertank heating pad or tape. These are available at any pet store or online. Heating one end of the cage is best. This allows for a temperature variation that your lizard needs. Heat rocks tend to become too hot for leopard geckos and should be avoided due to the risk of burns. For viewing, a simple low-wattage light can be placed overhead on the screen-cage top and left on 12 hours a day. Because leopard geckos are active at night  they do not need to bask under a special UVB light.

The ideal temperature in the hide box is 88 to 90 degrees Fahrenheit at all times. The ambient air temperature of the room they are housed in should be above 73 degrees.
