Personally i'd check Craigslist or locally for breeders. I've had problems with adults dying off for about 2weeks to a month after getting them. This was in the summertime but I've also read of others having the same issue. Maybe the adults just don't take travel well cause I never had that issue with nymphs. Anyways I picked up 50 freshly molted females to add to my colony locally off Craigslist and they were perfect.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
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?
