Bernard
@Sicarius1 will the enclosure I bought for it be big enough for it’s forever home? It’s 31cm each four sides and the height is 20cm? And Bernard is male, I don’t know if that makes any difference
 
@Trincess if my math servese correct thats 12inches x 12 inches x 7inches. Now with that being known, an A. Genic can reach roughly 9 inches fairly quickly granted you have the right environment and diet. It's a larger terrestrial. Mine have always been opportunistic borrowers but a hide works well too. As far as an enclosure is concerned, well that depends on which side of the fence you are on. What I mean by that is some owners are all about recreating their natural habitat I. E. (myself)and some are about keeping them in a more manageable space. I personally do not care how much space I use as long as they feel as close to their own home as I can possibly create. I am a believer in "you get what you put in to it". Plus it's so fun researching their habitat and attempting to recreate it. It's like building a real life living model of different places in the world.
 
The enclosure you have should be sufficient for a few years .but keep in mind that a general rule of thumb for terrestrials is to have 2-3 times their body length for ground space. For arboreals it's 2-3 times their body length for climbing space.
