Thanks, that makes sense. Wonder how you get one? I might ask when I take Luna in.

You bring your animal into the vet and ask them for a prescription.

My mom still has to take her dogs to the vet.
Are you thinking that the dogs don't have to be seen in order to get the prescription?
You are confusing me.

Email makes sense. I wonder if they email the website directly or email it to you or what?

No I think my mom enters her vet's information when she places the order and they deal with the vet directly.
I'll ask her hold on let me call her right now.

What does gutloading mean?

It means giving your feeder bugs a very vitamin and nutrient rich last meal.

The added nutrients then get passed on to the reptile when it eats the bugs.

Oh ok.
You feed the worries good before you feed them to the lizard. That makes sense.

It is a lizard right?
Why do I get the feeling I'm about to get in trouble.

I think geckos are a type of lizard... Maybe we are both about to be in trouble lol

I think lizards have eyelids
Geckos have to lick their eyes

Dogs don't have to be hungry to kill birds.

That’s true but I thought they ate them too? Seems like a lot of birds to eat if they weren’t at least a little bit hungry but maybe they didn’t eat all of them.

I think leopard geckos are the only geckos that can blink.

No, I figured they would still have to be seen but I just didn’t get how it would work exactly if that makes sense. I’m probably overthinking it but like I didn’t know if they physically wrote one and took a picture/faxed it or called them or what. I’m confusing myself now

Okay thanks. That makes a lot more sense haha

So far so good! Per breeder instructions, we are giving him his space so he can de-stress and settle in. But I have been peeking in at him from time to time. He seems to love his cozy, warm log hide. But he has also done some exploring. He has been to the far end of the tank to explore his cool hide. He has found his water dish and had a drink. And he must have found his supplement dish too cause there are little foot prints in it We picked up some mealies for him today and are gutloading them now. Tomorrow he will have his first meal in his new home.

Oh my gosh how sweet.
I hope his first meal at home is a good one! Tell him not to overeat.. rookie mistake.

Yea, they’re technically lizards I think. Both order Squamata which is usually split up into snakes, lizards, and the freaky earthworm things that I always forget the name of.
