u should post this on the leopard gecko forum, if u havent already.
housing: 10 gallon's good for ONE leopard gecko. You'll need at least two hides. One dry and one humid
lighting & heating: either an incandescent bulb in a reflector lamp or an undertank heater.
Substrate: paper towels or that reptile carpet stuff. You could use sand, but only if your leopard gecko is 6 inches+ and it'll always be at risk of getting impacted
food: mealworms or crickets. i prefer mealworms because they don't hop all over the cage. waxworms, only for occasional treats
lets see....
leopard gecko(normal phase) $15-40
10 gallon with screen lid $15-20
undertank heater $15-20
OR
lamp with bulb $10
mealworms $2 for 100
OR
crickets $1-$1.50 for a dozen
paper towels ??? dunno, i just take them from my mom lol
you'll probably end up spending $100 for the setup and the gecko. i got it all for $60, but i got some stuff for free
