New Viper Gecko babies!
Are you looking for a new pet well look no further
Viper geckos make a great pet π¦
Care requirements:
Viper geckos get to be 3 inches long they stay quite small, they can be handled but as they are small and can be fast you want to be careful. They also can cohab easily!
Cage size will be dependent on how many you get. I recommend 10 gal long for 1-3, 20 gal long for 3-5. They don't need a large cage you can always go bigger if you want. They will need heat bulb I recommend nano heat bulbs 95 heat spot, ambient of 80 and cool side of 75 degrees. Humidity they need below 50%, have a spot they can go into where there is moss like a humid hide for if they want humidity. UVB is a must they can technically live with out one but I highly recommend UVB use an Arcadia shadedweller bulb. Food they eat are small bugs; as babies they eat fruit flies, springtails, pin head crickets, dwarf white isopods, and micro mealworms; as adults they small dubia roaches, mealworms, and small crickets. PLEASE PLEASE HEAR ME do not feed the bugs with out dusting with calcium it is a MUST these Viper geckos need the vitamin D3 it is necessary. Bedding you can use sand if you make a background you can make it where they can climb they do like to climb and get get closer to the heat, use a lid on the cage especially for babies, as babies can climb glass. You can put wood in there hides give them lots of spots to climb, hide, and nap on. They are a really neat animal to watch.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask!
