here @fringe sun

#

have you been feeding them at all?

fringe sun
#

Yeah

#

They drowned

#

The worms drowned

rocky helm
#

they drowned...?

fringe sun
#

Yeah in the water bowl

rocky helm
#

so you arent sure if she has consumed them or?

fringe sun
#

Yeah

rocky helm
#

i see

#

then without any heat definitely dont try and feed her more, as she wont be able to properly digest them

#

who is watching her currently?

fringe sun
#

A friend

#

Well tbh nobody atm but a friend can if it was an emergency

rocky helm
#

nobody is watching them???

fringe sun
#

No they should be alright

#

I think

rocky helm
#

they should have someone to at least check on them

fringe sun
#

When I get back I’ll work on a tank for one of them

rocky helm
#

leaving a gecko alone for 7 days is awhile, especially in this circumstance

#

one of them???

fringe sun
#

Well if I’m going to be 100% transparent about it

#

I got quite a few

#

It was like seeing fish

rocky helm
#

so both of those geckos were yours?

fringe sun
#

No

#

I got a similar one tho

rocky helm
#

well eitherway, however many geckos you have, im going to guess they are all set up the same or close to the same. if this is the case, this is going to run you a pretty penny to give them all minimum thriving living conditions

#

if this is not doable, i would recommend finding a way to rehome some of them if im being honest

fringe sun
#

Really?

#

How much do you think?

rocky helm
#

well, i can run the costs for one of them super quick

fringe sun
#

Okay

rocky helm
#

for a rough estimate on products for the tank, heat bulb, light fixture, and thermostat, itll be about 415-430USD

#

this can vary if you get items on sale or diy tank things of course, but it will not be cheap

#

this is just for one gecko, keep in mind

#

now multiply this by however many you own

fringe sun
#

So

#

A couple thousand

#

What about those little bins? That those breeders have?

#

How does that work?

rocky helm
#

breeding size bins shouldnt really be used for thriving conditions

#

those are for temporary stock, as (ideally) a gecko for sale isnt going to be living in that for an extended period of time. when properly done they also will still have heat

fringe sun
#

I ordered everything before I went to bed and just paid extra for it to arrive the next day

#

Everything is setup now for the one the others are in naked setups no dirt

#

Or sand

#

I just put paper towels bcuz I need to run some errands

#

The heat was super annoying to setup but I think it’s good now

#

I didn’t know what I was doing with the dirt and plants so It’s kind of a mess

latent ginkgo
#

I'd prefer here, but if you can only do DMs that's fine. Any further convos will be here though for transparency and academic accountability etc etc etc

#

Tank looks nice to me! How many Leo's do you actually have?

fringe sun
#

The pet store I got them from gave me sick animals and compensated by giving me “healthy” ones

#

a black and white one
yellow and black
bright orange and yellow
and a little guy with these two orange type of stripes running down his back

#

yeah seeing the guide has helped a lot
