I suggest you use a humid box. it is very simple & provides humidity for the gek which aids in sloughing off the shed - without it geks do lose toes unnecessarily. Get a small Tupperware container & drill a 1" - 1 1/2" hole in the top. Fill box loosely with pre moistened vermiculite & play sand to withing an inch or so of the top. You should be able to make a snowball of the mixture to insure you have the correct amount of water.The geks will stay in there all day long - they love it
Thanks, Red-eye. I did forget to mention in my post that all the leos have access to humid boxes. The boxes are checked daily & misted as needed. Audrey Brown, L.V.T., L.A.T., C.M.
