This is what I am leaving my boyfriend with, when I leave on Friday morning. And I am not even making him bother with feeding the snakes, or venting the incubators!
Here it is (2 pgs in ms word!) and as you can read, I have it color coded etc. to help!
Feeding Specifics:
~Anouk gets one small pile (the size of her body) twice a day.
~Nigel gets one pile daily. Can have a little more if he’s moving around in the afternoon to help calm him down/entertain him
~Santiago and Faye get enough prepared crested gecko diet poured into a deli cup, so that the amount is the size of a half dollar.
~ Mom’s geckos get 1/3-1/2 of a deli cup of prepared crested gecko diet!
And just one special note: If our apartment therm AND the therm by the incubators reads ANYWHERE over 80F do what you can to cool it down. Including: opening windows, running the fan from the bedroom (on low/med, no high) or any combination of the aforementioned options. Temps over 80 are BAD for the geckos, and could destroy the incubating eggs. Also, night temps can drop NO LOWER than 65F
