I'm not sure if it's a boy or girl, I believe it's around 7 or 8 years old. I'm moving to Florida and can't take him with me unfortunately, plus my cats try to get in his tank constantly to eat him. I feed him mealworms as I can't get him to eat anything else, he isn't the biggest fan of being picked up but will tolerate it. You will be getting the Gecko, tank, decorations, and any left over mealworms. I do not use a heating lamp for him as he's never been a fan of the light so I use a heating pad that is not included.
