Posted: Sun Jun 22, 2008 9:47 pm Post subject: Can I put another gecko with Treackle |
|
|
Ive had treackle for over 6 years now and she was roughly 3-4 years old then, so shes about 10 years old. As long as ive had her shes been on her own and never been with another gecko. I was wondering could I put another gecko with her? Atm shes being a bit fussy(by that I mean refusing everything other than waxworms) and was told that she may eat better with another gecko being the competition and ive been offered a female leopard gecko on a plate. I know you can put geckos together but am a bit worried about mixing after a long time of being on her own.

should be alright, as long as:
they are similar sizes
you clean the viv out thoroughly before putting them in
you rearrange the decor in the viv
there are alot of hiding places
and just in case have an extra enclosure on side just in case. _________________ Tom

Also don't forget to quarantine the new female for at least a month before you introduce them although 2 would be better  _________________ www.draco2.co.uk
