Nugget Update
Yay! It’s been almost 2 months since we brought nugget home and you can’t believe how much he/she has grown. Still aren’t able to tell the sex but I think Nugget is a she.
Nugget on May 26th, 2009. Looking a little thin but healthy.
Nugget today, July 17th, 2009. See how her tail is a bit fatter and her belly is nice and full! I think she has grown at least 3/4 inches if not more.
We got her a new red light bulb because it gives off more heat. She likes to sleep against the water bowl because it’s made of some kind of rock and warms up quickly. We also changed the bedding from cage carpet to alfalfa pellets. Leopard gecko’s have tiny little nails and they kept getting snagged on the carpet. I will never use sand again because it does not digest well and will get impacted. Alfalfa pellets are easily digestible for them and I have actually caught her just munching on them, lol.

Nugget is cute!
