Ok first I got my CG from Pangea. Great setup. Second, I never used the bedding I used paper towels from day 1. Thirdly, I have had mine for about 2 months and at the rate Im using the CGD he gives you Ill have it for about 5 yrs. You dont need to give them alot I usually mix a quarter teaspoon of CGD with a half teaspoon of water and change it every 2 days and Ive never had my CG finish it. By the way free tip when you mist your cage use Distilled Water. It doesnt leave water marks when it dries. Good Luck.

I agree to use the paper towel at first so you can monitor the poop. Otherwise it's hard to do on a natural substrate. A jar of CGD lasts a looong time for just one gecko.
