#1 Question About Leopard Geckos?

Hello,
I am a reptile lover and business student at the Eller School of Management at the University of Arizona. I am doing a project about the reptile market, specifically Leopard Geckos, and was hoping some of you could take just 30 seconds to tell me you #1 question about Leopard Geckos.

Best,
Lane

Do they dream?
(Sorry, but I know a good deal about their care, I have time to wonder wacky things about them instead)

Re: #1 Question About Leopard Geckos?

Your question is a little confusing.
Are you asking what the number one most asked question is,
or just what we ourselves wonder about.
The latter could open up a very strange series of posts.

Re: #1 Question About Leopard Geckos?

When I first got my leopard gecko the #1 question I had was on feeding! How often, how much and exactly what bugs do I feed for the best nutrition.

Re: #1 Question About Leopard Geckos?

my first question would be: "what should you do if they lose their tail"

Re: #1 Question About Leopard Geckos?

I would say my #1 question when I first got him was about feeding: how many crickets to worms, and if I was feeding him too much

Re: #1 Question About Leopard Geckos?

This may be a tough one but based off reserch books I own. What was collected/and is know today as the Leopard Gecko has not been found again in this oringial region it was collected in (the place I fail to remember at this time), though related species have been found Eublepharis macularius has not, even though the species described was based on this find. What happened to this Eublepharis macularius in this region?

Re: #1 Question About Leopard Geckos?

I wonder if the only wild caught leopard geckos were sub-intelligent and weak, and that's what allowed us to capture them. Of course all subsequent captive breedings would pass down these unfortunate traits, and we would come to believe that all leopard geckos were exactly this way. But could that mean that somewhere there's a colony of intelligent, strong geckos, laughing at their captive cousins?
