Hi! I'm am looking into getting my son a leopard gecko sometime in the relatively near future as his first pet that is all his (other than a betta) and I've heard this is a really good 'starter' pet. Hes 11 years old so I figured it would be a good age to do it.
I've heard they are calmer more docile pets usually which I think he would really like to be able to hold over once in a while, but my real question is I dont want to get wrong Info online like I did for my tortoise. Do any of you guys have accurate care sheets or links to places you all trust for correct care? Also, suggestions of other reptiles you might think would be better? Can't do snakes right now even though I love them. My apartments won't let us have them and they do actually come to check filters, spray for pests and etc so there's no hiding it either, not that I'd really want to anyway. Weird, but whatever.
Thanks everyone!
