Well...since I had my first baby hatch in November my roommate has fallen in love! She decided she wanted a leo a REAL bad...lol So I told her I would give her one for her 21st (which was the 13th)...and made her a cage and everything, but because of the roommate problems we've been having most of my geckos have been in someone's office on campus. I finally got a chance to get to her office today to pick up Skissor for the roomie...good timing too, cause it looks like she's about to lay eggs (they said she's been digging for days, and I can see the eggs in her little tummy)! Well she's pretty much all set up in her new home now (although we still have to find a place to plug in her uth...) and seems to be satisfied
Here's a couple pics:
the whole set-up...
the trademark leo smile!
The cage took me quite awhile to make....a lot of foil and duct tape was involved........LOL The cage itself is made out of a sterilite bin turned on its side with a sheet of plastic duct-taped to a hole I made in the lid and a nylon screen glued with poster frame edges into a hole I made in one side (which is now the top). The "furniture" is made out of foil covered in duct tape (except the humid hide has a ziplock container thing in it), painted with sand textured acrylic paint and sprayed with matte polyurethane sealer...and then there's the couple fabric plants just to spruce it up! I was trying to go for a very natural look. Anyway...just thought I'd share!
