Baby Leopard Gecko?

Question

Ok, Last night my leopard gecko egg finally hatched but now what do I do. I have a small kritter keeper lined with paper towels and I put the container that the egg hatched in, in the kritter keeper as a moist hide (it has vermiculite in it). When should I attempt to feed it? And If anyone can go into detail with their answers that will be great, including websites that can help.

Answer 1

After they hatch the babies will most likely not eat until they have had their first shed - which on average is about a week later.

Remove access to the vermiculite and just use paper towels as a subtrate and create a standard moist hide.

So after they shed, just offer them food and they should eventually start eat by themselves. The food offered should be no bigger than the width between the eyes.

Thats is pretty much, most people don't normally have any problems raising leopard gecko bubs.

Hope this helps!
