i think there are a lot of issues about keeping leos on sand but i think its down to choice at the end of the day.I dont agree to the bark chippings but sand is ok FOR SOME.some leos are fine on it and some do die from impactation.those ones are the unlucky ones but i really think everyone should stop getting so up tight about the issue.I keep my juvies on kitchen roll and my adults on sand.Leopard geckos do come from rocky areas of desert coverd with sand from afganistan-sorry about the spelling- and yeh they dont live on newspaper in the wild but at the end of the day cant we all agree or disagree that there are a number of substrates that can be used when deciding to keep a leo, but cant we advise what is there instead of arguing all the time that sand is either bad or good? pretty pleaseAs said above, for adult leo's, sand is fine
thankyou could not of put it better myself :lol:I dont agree to the bark chippings but sand is ok FOR SOME.some leos are fine on it and some do die from impactation.those ones are the unlucky ones
Having seen where these animals live i can honestly say that if you think for one minute it isn't sandy then you are miss-informed.agazzis said:hi gary geckos dont live on newspaper in the wild but their natural habitat is not sand either they live on rocky clay surfaces in deserts
