Setting up

Heating: Warm side surface temperature of 28–32°C under a heat mat or low-wattage overhead heat source, with the cool side around 24–26°C. A night-time drop to 18–22°C is natural and beneficial.

Humidity: 30–40% ambient, letting the enclosure dry fully between light mistings. Always provide a humid hide with damp sphagnum moss, particularly during shedding.

UVB: A 6% UVB tube along most of the vivarium's width, with the basking spot about 20–30cm from the lamp. Low-level UV supports long-term health and calcium metabolism.

Diet: Live invertebrates such as crickets, dubia roaches and mealworms, with waxworms as an occasional treat. Feed juveniles every other day and adults every 2–3 days. Gut-load prey and dust with calcium and vitamin D3 at most feedings.

About the Leopard Gecko Setup

ABOUT THIS SPECIES

Leopard geckos are a ground-dwelling lizard native to the rocky semi-deserts and dry grasslands of South and Central Asia, where they spend the day sheltering beneath stones, in crevices, and within old stone walls, emerging at dusk to hunt. Their bold spotted patterning — which gives the species its name — provides excellent camouflage among the dusty, dappled terrain of their homeland, and decades of captive breeding have produced a dazzling array of colour and pattern morphs from that same wild foundation.

They are widely considered one of the very best beginner reptiles available, being hardy, handleable, and reliably easy to feed, yet they remain equally rewarding for experienced keepers who enjoy the breadth of morph diversity on offer. If you're looking for your first gecko or simply a personable, low-maintenance reptile that's a pleasure to keep, the leopard gecko is hard to beat.
