The breeders had been feeding it cgd before my purchase so I did the same. I'm planning on feeding him crickets as a treat every week or two as well. However, I'm concerned with the amount of cgd he's eating. I leave a small portion of it in his tank over night but in the morning it looks nearly the same, if not completely untouched. I know that because he's a baby he won't eat a lot but I'd like to know the normal amount a baby should be eating on a regular basis. Thanks.

PS: He eats a little if I feed him, but again only maybe an eighth of a teaspoon or less. ]]> Crested Geckos | Correlophus (Rhacodactylus) ciliatus Lucas92 http://www.geckosunlimited.com/community/crested-geckos-correlophus-rhacodactylus-ciliatus/69785-feeding-baby-crested-gecko.html Help! http://www.geckosunlimited.com/community/crested-geckos-correlophus-rhacodactylus-ciliatus/69777-help.html Mon, 17 Jun 2013 19:17:43 GMT So yesterday I got two new crested geckos and I had them out on my bed for a little bit and I thought hmm why dont I bring my older crestie out, so I... So yesterday I got two new crested geckos and I had them out on my bed for a little bit and I thought hmm why dont I bring my older crestie out, so I did so and they were all doing fine. The older crestie was licking the little ones, They are not much smaller then him then suddenly he went to bite the female but missed and bite my pillow. So I put my hand infront on her so he couldnt bite her, then he bite me and wouldnt let go and I started bleeding..
Then after I got him off me and into his cage he started making a chirping noise ..
What does all this mean? ]]> Crested Geckos | Correlophus (Rhacodactylus) ciliatus iJessie http://www.geckosunlimited.com/community/crested-geckos-correlophus-rhacodactylus-ciliatus/69777-help.html My first clutch ever!!! http://www.geckosunlimited.com/community/crested-geckos-correlophus-rhacodactylus-ciliatus/69771-my-first-clutch-ever.html Mon, 17 Jun 2013 14:16:14 GMT last night I found my female digging in her moist hide, And in the morning there was My first clutch ever!!!Attachment 23437... last night I found my female digging in her moist hide, And in the morning there was My first clutch ever!!!IMG_0200.jpg

3.What kind of Morph Is my Gecko?
4.I dont know if anyone can tell from my picture, but Do I have a Male or Female? I was told it was a male, but I was also told it was female so I am confused.

Do you think this is ok for her or should something else be in there?
She has lots of climbing places, branches and vines, ledges on the sides with her 2 bowls of CGD. Slightly worried that she won't be able to find her insects but she had no problems in her smaller tank and she's alot bigger now so I'm assuming she will be ok.

She has a 10% UV and a heat bulb to create a gradient, there is also another bulb purely for plant growth

When I put him in my tank for him he seemed extra stressed so I left him be. 5 days later i went to the tank and sat in front of it watching him. He seemed to have trouble climbing the glass and was very skittish. He freaked out climbed up the glass fell on his but area and dropped his tail. I feel absolutely awful for him. Was it my fault? I Know i should now put paper towels in as substrate but im too scared he will freak out even more. Is there something wrong with the gecko or me? What should i do. i cant even get a hold of him before he bolts off. :cry: ]]> Crested Geckos | Correlophus (Rhacodactylus) ciliatus bwarden17 http://www.geckosunlimited.com/community/crested-geckos-correlophus-rhacodactylus-ciliatus/69722-weird-tail-drop.html help! http://www.geckosunlimited.com/community/crested-geckos-correlophus-rhacodactylus-ciliatus/69706-help.html Wed, 12 Jun 2013 00:30:57 GMT So I got my crestie about a month ago from someone else who didnt want him anymore at first everything was great and he is still doing great, but...

Teah was hatched yesterday and I wish I had better pics of him/her because he/she has amazing portholes and patterning already! This little one just sat resting as soon as it got its head out of the egg for what seemed like forever.

Lightning was hatched today and named for being super quick getting out of that egg. Really. Super. Quick.

Here are the cute (and sorta messy) pics:

It will be my first Gecko and I'm simply looking for one as a pet. I've been to a couple PJ's Pets and they had either none, or only two 2 chose from. I also went to Reptilia and they seemed like the best place. Just wondering if there is anywhere else i can go to find an inexpensive buddy :)

Two of the things that I know she can't have/a lot of.

I tried giving her the smallest crickets that I could find, as well as the smallest hoppers that I could find, but she just ignored them.

She also ignores the CGD that I give her, which is worrying me. She's about 4 inches long, nose to tip of her tail.

Is it okay to continue to feed her the waxworms until she is big enough to try a few larger crickets or hoppers? What if I dip the waxworm into the CGD so she gets both? ]]> Crested Geckos | Correlophus (Rhacodactylus) ciliatus immortalspuddy http://www.geckosunlimited.com/community/crested-geckos-correlophus-rhacodactylus-ciliatus/69670-further-feeding-help.html <![CDATA[Velcro & Clothespin]]> http://www.geckosunlimited.com/community/crested-geckos-correlophus-rhacodactylus-ciliatus/69650-velcro-clothespin.html Fri, 07 Jun 2013 16:06:54 GMT My two crested geckos and their daily goings-on.

Hey guys, I am getting a baby created sometime within the next couple months, and in the meantime I will be getting the setup and everything I need. I have a spare 10 gallon tank which I was going to use while it was growing, but I was told I shouldn't. That I need to get something at least 20" heigh, so I planned on getting the Exo Terra 18x18x24 terrarium. After that I'm sorta lost. I know you need lots of cover for them, vines and plants. But I've also heard its different for a baby. I've heard this all just across the Internet so I figured I'd ask first to make sure my set up would be okay. I planned on using coco fiber with a layer of moss for substrate. Is all this okay? Any help or pictures of setups would be appreciated SO much! I want to make sure I have everything correct before getting my new baby. Thank you!
