My husband found a baby gecko on our porch last night and we kind of adopted it. He's just about an inch and a half long, so I think he's pretty young. What should I be feeding it? I put some meal worms and lettuce in his container, but I don't think he ate any of it.
I'm going out today to buy him something to live in. I know I need to buy a heat lamp to keep him warm. Its getting cold outside here, so if I let him go back into the wild, I'm afraid he'll freeze to death.
Any advice would be greatly appretiated. I never owned a gecko before. Thanks.

he probably wont eat the lettice...make sure the mealworms are n ot bigger then its head . could you upload a picture of it ? if we could figure out what species it is we could help you better .
