It would be cool to get a blizzard. Maybe, I could get the cage all white things. (To make it look like the arctic...hey, its a blizzard after all...right? ) Or I can keep the cage normal, and it'll stand out from everything.

tangerines and jungles usually are pretty cheap.

the leopard gecko manual is a good book

Leopard Geckos will breed year-round but the spring and summer months are the most prolific.

crickets are the best staple food by far. But some people have had great succes with silkworms. Mealworms are ok as a treat but their tough exoskeleton makes them too hard to digest and not a very good staple food.

No, the cage shouldn't be all white things, I hope that was a joke. If things were to be all white it would confuse the heck out of the poor thing and I would imagine it to be extremely stressful trying to decifer where one thing ends and the other starts. white sand or paper towels are perfectly fine though

sand wouldnt be the best choce for baby Leopard Geckos. I personally dont use sand for any of my herps as I have in the past and all have done no good to them. Even if you dont see then eating the sand it build up over the months and years until you eventually have an impacted gecko on your hands. If you want to use sand...used washed and sifted playsand after the gecko reaches adult size (around a year of age) but it's not reccommended. Calcium sand is a big no-no because it contains harmful silica. Now the pack says "silica-free" but it lies, i ended up coughing my brains out every time i "cleaned" the leo cage when I used calci-sand forever and a day ago. Newspaper, paper towels, linoleum, astroturf, indoor/outdoor carpet all works great and are all easy to clean.

Don't worry, I know not to use sand. (I've heard what I can do to Leopard Geckos, and I'd never want that to happen to one) For substrate, I'd most likely use reptile carpet or slate tiles. (And if I can't get those, paper towels it is!)
