My leopard geckos teeth get stuck to reptile carpet!HELP!!!!

Question

Whenever she goes after a cricket and sh misses her teeth get caught on the reptile carpet.

Answer 1

The carpet nap is too long.  It should be VERY short/tight for geckos.

You can just use plain brown wrapping paper, aged newspaper (at least a week, so the ink is dry and fumes have evaporated) , or paper towels on the bottom of her cage, and that would solve the problem and make her happier.

I hope this has been of help.

Answer 2

I use non-adhesive shelf liner in my lizard cages.  It comes in a roll in kitchen department of any store.  It has a rubbery feel, looks great, and cleanups a breeze.  Otherwise you can use papertowels or newspaper.  Good for you for not using sand--it kills!!

Answer 3

use newspaper instead.

Answer 4

use sand!!! leopard geckos live in the desssssert!!!
