Hi!
I have an older leopard gecko who has been a part of my family for all 13 of her years on earth. A few years ago I moved out for University and was unable to keep her at my residence with me so my parents took over her care. I'm now living somewhere that I am able to house her as well, however I'm hesitant to risk putting any stress on her at this age. It would be a fairly short process as my new home is only approx. 30 minutes away from my parents home but I'm worried about how she will settle in to being in a new overall environment. She's a very happy, lively and gentle tempered gecko, I would love to bring her here but I've never had to face moving a leopard gecko or any reptile at this stage in their life and I don't want to potentially harm her or diminish her quality of life in the process.
Thanks to anyone who can offer any words of wisdom.
