Question:

Is sawdust OK to use as the substrate in an incubator for Leopard Geckos?

My Gecko has just laid an egg this morning and I knew she was pregnant but not when and we intended to go out today and buy some vermiculite but she has already laid 2 so we have put them in a tuba-wear container with sawdust that will be kept moist and also cling film over the top to hold in moisture, the container is under a spotlight in the geckos tank. Is sawdust ok or bad ?

Answer:

yes it could be the rubber bushings ! those rubber bushings can squeak when they get worn ! check the rubber bushings like the body mounts and sway bar bushings, if you have to replace them use neoprine bushings, they are better then rubber.
id say dont use sawdust,
