Leopard Gecko




Another one of our creatures (beside the kids) is Mr. Siemers. He is named after a close family friend, who loves to pick on Garrett. He is a leopard Gecko. He belongs to Garrett. Garrett worked very hard to prove that he could care for him and saved up for a long time to buy all the supplies to care for him. When it came time to buy the gecko he had run out of money. He decided to take the supplies home and save up some more. One of the employees came by and asked him what he was looking for. He explained that after buying all the supplies he ran out of money. She told him to wait one minute. She came back with this full grown leopard gecko. he told her once again, he could not afford a baby ($35) none the less an adult ($70+) She told him someone had dropped him off and said to find him a good home and she thought he should go home with us. So she put him in a box, marked it free and off we went. He has lived with us for going on 3 years now. Garrett even raises his own grub worms to feed him.
