well I don't have a pic but, all you really need is a tank of sufficent size to hold your male and females. A humid hide/laybox. I use a 40 gallon long tank and a sterilite plastic shoebox with 1.5 inches of bed-a-beast with a small amount of perlite added in just to fluff it up a little. I have had one male and 7 females in this set-up at one time with plenty of room. Plus another shoebox on the cool side with a hole cut in it for entry for a hide. Keep the entrance up a bit to keep them from dragging out material. I feed superworms almost eclusivly except to babies and juvies which get crix and mealies. Just make sure the female is getting plenty of calcium dusted meals and has a bowl of it to munch out of. No special light needed they are nocturnal and don't really like bright light anyhow. The rest is just general leo care like they need. Oh, make sure the lay box stays moist so eggs don't dry out.


:Does anyone have a picture of their leo breeding setup?
:I need to know how to setup and what supplies, diet, and lighting I will need for breeding.
