Andrea,
Having lived in the city my whole life and only seeing the large black
crickets in the basement of our house, I just don't like bugs.
Cockroaches and Crickets are in the same category - UGH. I don't mind
grasshoppers or preying mantis. Spiders are OK if small.
When my son first bought his first Leopard Gecko, I gave him the money to
purchase the second one for company; however, now after doing some reading, I
found that Leopard Geckos don't need companionship.
Luckily for us, we have a male and a female. We don't plan on mating them
unless they do it on their own.
Becky
