149: AAH Creating a Complex Wild Habitat | Eco-Logic Gecko

Tom Mellor is the creator of Eco-Logic Gecko, a YouTube channel dedicated to documenting the process of recreating the complex wild habitat of leopard geckos.  Tom talks us through how a negative experience he had early on in his reptile-keeping career propelled him to create one of the most appealing leopard gecko setups I have seen. We discuss how Tom collects data and information, including the plants he uses, substrate, lighting, and more. We also cover how the benefits of focusing all of your time and energy on a single animal as well as the psychology of reptile keepers.
