Enrichment Study
A study was published about leopard geckos and enrichment!

Of course we already understand how vital enrichment is, but having the science to back it up is important too.
I definitely learned things from reading through this! Apparently the leopard geckos in the study really appreciated having bigger water bowls they could fully step in.
My boy has always had a tiny one, because the community pretty much agrees leos don't soak. Buuut now that I think about it, I do notice Blue stepping in his water bowl pretty often and theres always dirt in it the day after I refill it, suggesting he does that pretty much every night. So I've given him a bigger one to see how he reacts!
