My question is: should I get a new female to put in with my male? I'm concerned as to what the likelihood of him getting along with the new female would be, and I'd hate to have to have separate enclosures. The story: Years ago I bought 2 giant day geckos off of craigslist. The owner at the...

Hi all, this is a 9ish month old gecko that I've raised and was wondering if all the 'experts' on here could help tell me what gender it is? Thanks so much in advance!

I promise I really really tried to find the answer to my question before posting it. If you have a link, go ahead and just send that on! I just want to know how to go about planting into an exo terra 24 x 18 x 24? I know you need a drainage level... gravel or something? That's literally all I...

Hi there. So I'm concerned about one of my little hatchlings. These two clutch-mates turned 1 month old on the 16th of August, and they were doing fantastically until about a week ago when I noticed they seemed to be having trouble shedding. I think it's because I'm in nursing school and I...

Ok, so this is only both my and my female giant day gecko's 2nd breeding season ever. So far this season 3 babies have hatched. 2 from 1 couplet, and 1 from the 2nd couplet. The thing I'm kind of worried about is that the 2nd egg from the 2nd couplet hasn't hatched yet, and it's been 4 days...

So I thought I'd totally sealed it up, but my 3 year old crestie - Kyo - found a way behind that darn exoterra rock wall background again! So I found the point of entry and sealed it up, too. But now I feel kind of bad? Should I unseal it and just let him go back there as he wishes? Is there...

Simple question: could I plant a sansevieria plant in cypress mulch bedding? I use the ZooMed forest floor cypress mulch for substrate with my madagascar grandis. I've heard sansevieria is super hardy. Hardy enough to survive in this kind of substrate?

Hi all! First of all I want to say thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this and help out. You're awesome. :) Anyway, when should I expect eggs again? Also, this will be my 2nd breeding season ever. My happy couplet of giant day geckos gave me like 5 batches of eggs last year. But it...

So I was just wondering how old is the right age to start selling Mad. Grandis Hatchlings? I currently have 2, one that hatched on May 7th and has doubled its size (so cute!), and one that hatched on June 7th and is still pretty small. I know pricing ranges from 40 - 100 depending on how red...

So I got really excited last night when I saw that 2 of my eggies had hatched. It wasn't until I put them into their "nursery" container that I noticed there was something very wrong with one of them. It doesn't have any eyes. No eyes, whatsoever. It also has a severe underbite. I misted right...

I've never heard of this before, but I also had never heard it before, either... Until I got my grandis pair. I seem to have a happy couple. My female has produced 4 batches of eggs this season without sustaining any damage whatsoever that I have heard they sometimes can if the male is too...

So my girl finally laid eggs. I'm not completely sure when she actually did it, but I found 3 today. 2 of them were in a bamboo stalk that I didn't even realize was hollow until I found her head peeking out of it, and 1 of them was in the water resevoir! :( I'm not sure why she would place one...

Hi all! So my boyfriend has a litte 7 month old gargoyle gecko who seems to be a female. I recently got him a new tank that's an 18x18x18 and he thinks it's big enough to get another garg or 2. The big question is should he get another female or a male? It wouldn't be any time really soon...

Hi all! I currently have a male flame crestie that is almost a year and a half old. I've been starting to wishfully think about getting him a girlfriend... for companionship, and also... because I just want another one. :blushing: haha. but all I ever see on keeping male/female cresties...

Hi! I'm pretty sure my madagascar grandis have mated. My female is getting fatter and eating more is taking really well to the switch over from strawberry applesauce (previous owner) to the repashy mix. My question is: how do I make sure she has an appealing place to lay her eggs? I've read...
