Leo

At the boys' school, each classroom has a pet. Nathan's pet is a Leopard Gecko named Leo. Each weekend, a student will take Leo home and care for him. Over Christmas break, Nathan has the honor of caring for Leo.

Both Nathan & Brandon have been excited about Leo's visit. Brandon likes to hold him and pet him. Nathan, not so much. Nathan enjoys pets from a distance while Brandon has more of a hands on approach.

Nathan thinks that Leo is 14 years old. I just looked up some info on them, and it said they can live to be 20. I'll have to ask his teacher when we return to school. Leo has been eating crickets and king meal worms. He seems to prefer the worms. Leo gave us a show the other day. He shed his skin and then proceeded to eat it. It was interesting - the kids were fascinated by it.
