African Fat Tail info?

DaGiant

DaBig Guy retired to MS
I won a contest and am being shipped an African Fat Tailed Gecko
next week.!.
I am getting the set up ready for when it gets here, but
while doing my homework on them I get conflicting care info.
Where or what is the best info for them?

Thanks
 
I keep them exactly like leopard geckos, 90-75 temp gradient, just with a bit higher humidity. I mist the enclosure every other day or so, whereas I almost never need to with leos. Just watch for shedding problems, especially be sure to check the toes. They temp/sex out in incubation just like leos, so most sold in the pet trade should be females. Like with leo's males will fight viciously. There are a bunch of care sheets that can be Googled, I didn't see any that had conflicting info or brought much to question.
