This is the world's worst picture, but I didn't want to stress him (or her?) out. He's in a 10 gallon tank with reptile carpet, a cave on the warm side and his hide with moist moss on the other... along with a little water dish and a dish for calcium. I fed him some crickets in another kritter keeper so I wouldn't have to dig them out.... Any other suggestions of stuff I need? There's a little plant in there so he can get into the hide... (it's a clean yogurt container w/ a hole in the lid)
Aw, what a cutie! I love leos. It sounds like you have a good setup. I have my girl in a 20 gallon long which gives her a bit more roaming space - you may want to consider that when he/she's a bit older, but it's not necessary. If you have any superworms, you can feed him/her the white ones - my June loves them!
no, all I have right now is small crickets. I put about a dozen in the critter keeper last night for him, but he just looked horrified.... He's currently snoozing happily under is warm cave. If he's going to hibernate like Ryuu is I'm not going to buy any superworms right now....
Can they eat small hornworms? Don't have any, but it's Ryuu's favorite snack

Last I heard, leopard geckos don't hibernate. Have you tried asking about that on a good gecko forum?
He should be able to eat hornworms no problem as long as they're small enough--also silkworms, butterworms, and any other "bug" food your beardie can eat.
