So my mom was looking to get either a bearded dragon or leapord gecko once she gets back from vacation later on this month, which also peaked my interest as i'm looking for a friend (i will spare you the sob story of being an 18 year old kid 
). So anyway, i saw a panther gecko and i was like, awesome! It seemed really cool and soon made a visit to petco to check to see if they had any, to no avail. I also realized that i didn't like geckos very much because while little they looked cool, but when they got older they looked like salamanders and that just wasn't cool for me, plus all the ones they had were nocturnal, who the hell wants a pet that sleeps all day? I looked at the bearded dragons and they were pretty cool, kinda big, almost about maybe halfway to an average adult size, maybe smaller, wanted something smaller though to raise on my own.
So i took a ride over to petsmart, maybe 2 minutes up the road, and took a look there. If somebody was to ask me if i believed in love at first site, i'd say absolutely. Right when i got infront of the tank where they housed all the 1 month old bearded dragons, he ran right up to the front of the tank and just kind of hung out for a few, and then ran back up to his friends. I loved him. He was like a whitish greay with orange lines and whatnot. He almost looked like a creamsicle looking thing. He was so awesome, i talked with my mom and went back the next day to buy everything i needed, along with my new friend Leeroy. When i went back the next day he did the same thing, ran right up to the front of the tank and just looked at me. He soon went home with me a few hours later.
I got the name Leeroy because i'm a Tampa Bay Buccaneers fan (football team) and because he had the orange/whitish grey to him (same colors as the early uniforms to the Bucs), i decided to name him after the great Leeroy Selmon who played for the team. He's also just about 2 months old, maybe a tad older but not over 3 months. I got him on the 8th of August
Currently eating somewhere between 8-15 crickets a day (need to start keeping better track, maybe a log), heated side ranging between 100-110 degrees F, with the cool side between 86-90 depending on the day, humidity at night is at like 60% but drops to 30-40% during the day when his lights are on. Haven't tried giving him greens yet as most people put it off until they get older, but i was wondering how to get him to eat it? I asked a guy at petsmart and crushing up lettuce and leaving in bits of other fruit while placing in mealworms will get him to eat it because he's getting the mealworm, while also being introduced the fresh fruits and veg. How'd you guys do it? He's also currently situated in a 20/29 gallon tank, going to upgrade to either a 40 or 75 gal when he starts to get bigger.
Anything else i should improve on/add/change/prepare for? Also don't know if leeroy is actually a girl or guy... I tried checking but it's too hard to tell atm. Going to be super sad if he turns out to be a she
