Hi all, I was wondering if i could get flooring recommendations?
We had them on tiles, but changed to self liner due to concerns about their knees. The problem with the liner is it's a bit slippery, and they cant always grip.
They are both also currently receiving treatment for pinworms and coccadia, so if anyone knows of any flooring that is non slippy, easy to clean, and has a bit of 'bounce'? :)

I think the best thing is a mix of different flooring types. I'm using cork and rock: viewtopic.php?f=75&t=233838#p1809346

The cork isn't quite as easy to clean as I would like, but it's not too bad either. Rock is rock. I think this ends up being a good combination.

Cork is a little expensive. The kind I used is only $1.99 per sq ft, but I had to buy a whole box, which was $55. If you can find scraps or opened boxes, etc., that may be more cost effective.

Perhaps some vinyl flooring would have enough traction and cushion while still being easy to clean. There are tons of options available so I'd just go to the hardware store and check out what's available and see if anything fits the bill.

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
