cassidysluvr :

i’m sorry this is not the best video of my enclosure, it is a quarantine tank but i have a heat lamp, i have uvb, i have 3 hides (sphagnum moss inside the humid one), a water bowl, a calcium dish, and i have some clutter. if im missing something please tell me, maybe more or less clutter, but ive done research and i am trying

Girlll I had just gotten my peaches she did that I thought she wanted to be picked up boy was I wrong she bit me!! lol but now she loves to be held

theprincessqueengirl :

Just a little baby aww , probably learning how to hunt or defend themswlf , i would avoid trying to handle her, and don't do anything over her head because it can spook them! :) it takes a few weeks for a gecko to get comfy so don't be suprised if she stays hidden or is a bit twitchy! space and time and correct temps and food etc will all

lucky :

young leos seem to be categorically quite feisty, I don't think this is something you should be worried too much about as the creature will likely grow out of it. on the off chance your gecko is acting this way due to hunger, from research and personal experience, I would reccomend you feeding the small friend 4-6 small insects every other day. I do agree with other commenters that your gecko would certainly benefit from more hiding spaces though, this improves general wellness and brain health (and would help lessen stresses that also may be causing this behavior).

Shes so adorable

Gregory 🥖 :

u dont have to worry abt a enclousure o whatever probably its because os your first o two weeks and he/she needs to adapt to the new enviroment, try to feed him/her in your hand to build confidence and is just a Matter of time that he/she wont answer like that

keira 🦢⋆｡°✩ :

yes that looks like normal behavior! he looks curious and like he’s following your phone so he’s most likely just trying to eat the shadow lol 😭 honestly your set up looks fine for a quarantine tank, the only thing i’d suggest is adding a bit more clutter (fake plants/cork/branches/etc) but since your baby is coming out around you he clearly seems to feel comfortable and safe. once quarantine is over you could add a safe loose substrate which would add more enrichment

🪶Strawberry/Ironlungsdawg🪶 :

Maybe they hungry ?

He's being defensive
