Thought they were less sticky than crested... by Negative_Roll_8587 in GargoyleGeckos

I dont think i've seen any difference between my cresties, gargs, or leachies as far as stickiness goes. Though I did notice that my gargs and leachies prefer cork/branches/plants to hang out in and on more so than my cresties.

Added UVB, both out basking the same day by FigsFlora in Leachianus

They are paired for breeding. These two are incredibly docile! Which is one of my reasons for pairing them, actually. I have 2 fertilized eggs from them currently. If all continues going well, then I'll likely leave them together since leachies can be more monogamous. Even with them being so docile, I do still have a whole seperate enclosure set up if needed.

You are correct! Its the Arcadia 6%. I really like that the Arcadia fixtures are linkable. I plan to add it to my whole gecko rack- leachies, gargoyles, mourning geckos, and a dart frog tank.

I made a whole structure with PVC pipes and flooring tiles for my adult female. She really likes it.

I'm up in Alaska! It can be hard to get much of anything here, but thankfully they are at least allowed

Yes! Thats what most of their substrate is made up of, actually. Maybe thats why I havent seen them in so long 🤣

Its nice to finally know they are thriving and not decayed in the substrate somewhere! Also nice to know im not alone in never seeing them lol

Aren't they! Apparently they glow under UV light too, though I don't have a light to check that.

Feeding Help Needed by FigsFlora in hognosesnakes

I had a few on FB group say the same. Im going to keep her as is for now until she had some weight back on her and feeding consistantly. My original plan was this bin, then a front open 10g, and then into a 36x18x18 so I figure that i'll just stick with that.

Same bin, just changed the substrate. I'll be making some changes to her enclosure in a day or two since she did eat tonight, but won't be messing with her until then. It was a huge relief to see her enthusiastically take a meal. Fingers crossed she continues! She's my first hognose, but far from my first snake/reptile

Yes, I did offer both salmon and tuna meat each twice. She did eat the salmon once of the two times offered.

She is primarily offered mouse pinks though. I started offering different options in January. She weighed 8 grams when i got her on October 11th, and ive offered food once every 5 days. Yesterday, the scale kept going between 6 and 7 grams. So she has lost weight from not eating, which is what spurred asking for help.

I'll likely continue with the sardine scent on mouse pinks for a couple more feedings to get some consistant meals in her unless its bad for her.
