In 2015, I took two buses and a train to a little pet shop in London that no longer exists. I had started my first adult job a few months prior, and with nothing more than a few Google searches, I set out to buy myself a Leopard Gecko. Lacking experience with exotic pets, I missed the red flags. But as soon as I saw the sweet little adult female in an enclosure full of juvenile geckos, I had to have her. I brought her home along with a one-foot vivarium, purple calcium sand, a heat mat, and some mealworms. Little did I know that my life would soon revolve around my cheeky, fat-tailed Leopard Geckos. That sweet girl, whom I named Rio, stayed with me as I revolutionised her care, joined groups that gently educated me on correct husbandry, and eventually decided to breed geckos. Rio passed away in 2021 due to liver failure. Poor breeding and a rough start in life, combined with her overproducing infertile eggs, was too much for her little body. That same year, I hatched my first baby gecko (from different parents—Rio was never bred), a little Mack Snow Eclipse Tremper. Every gecko I handle teaches me something new, but Rio sparked a lifelong love of exotics and instilled in me the importance of ethical breeding and science-based husbandry. Leopard Geckos London was created to give owners a better experience than I had with my first - trustworthy science-based advice, ethically bred, temperament assessed Leopard Geckos, and lifetime support. Our tagline says it all: we bloody love Leopard Geckos.
