So I am new to owning leopard geckos
i got a montanus leopard gecko from a reputable reptile shop 2weeks ago.(have got my corn snake(who is nearly 9years old) and bearded dragon from them)
Was told my wee gecko is about 2month old.
I finally got it happy enough to be held a bit to weigh it on my reptile scales.
when I weighed my gecko it only weighs 11g.(I made sure scale was at 0 before putting gecko on) I also measure it at 12cm.
from reading online and other gecko pages it means it underweight and small for its age.
Am I correct with this or could my gecko be younger than what I was told or possibly just going to be small lizard. I have attached a picture I took yesterday of it.
