I just wanted to first say thanks to Cricket, Liz, Sorrow, and everybody who helped me with dear Sparky. Anywho, I wanted to give you guys an update on Zuko. When I just got him (October 19th 2012) he weighed about 8-9 grams, he is now a nice 31g! Not sure on length but its a bit more than 6...

Hey, I have a buddy of mine who I'm trying to help set up a crested gecko tank, they saw my Leo and I talked them into it lol. Anyways, I just wanted some clarification on tank height. I've read around and from what I can tell find juvenile geckos like it nice and small, critter keepers and...

I know I've read around that some geckos prefer lower/higher temps so my question is... What is about the lowest they can digest at? Currently Lord Zuko seems to like 85 degrees for heat, he'll chill out on warmer temps (about 90) but seems to like the top of his hot hide the best at 85-86...

I had to share this. It made me laugh so hard. XD Sorry if this wasn't the best place for this, it seemed appropriate. I'm sorry if it isn't but I couldn't not share this. :crackup:

Hey! I think Zuko is starting to brumate. He seems to be eating a little less (instead of 10 meal worms, he's only eating 7-8 for example) , sleeping a lot in his humid hide, and being pretty inactive. (He will just chill there alert and looks at me when I pass or hears a noise, but just stays...

Lord Zuko: Shedding, do they need something rough? Zuko's shedding! I'm a little concerned though because he's running around like a mad man looking for something to scratch his head on! It's kinda funny. But I was just wondering, should I leave him to his own devices or find something...

I just wanted to ask about a certain odd behavior Lord Zuko is doing. Its nothing bad, just odd. ;-) Anywho, for some reason he poops on top of his warm hide. Now I thought it was just the particular rock cave so out of curiosity while he was cuddled up in his humid hide I switched the warm...

Is it possible for a gecko to shed within 3-6 days of a previous shed? Like a growth spurt or something? I was asked this by someone today and didn't know how to answer so I wanted to ask you guys. I'm sure it's not normal but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. For clarification I don't have a...

I had some questions about the three feeders mentioned above. :P First, the phoenix worm. I've read around and they seem fantastic... IF your gecko likes them. I don't remember where I read it but I'm almost positive I read somewhere a site does cheap "trial cups". Anybody by chance know where...

I saw Petco had a new gecko today and its so pretty, I'm almost tempted to buy it (my leo is enough though! lol), but I still would like to know what it is! I think I've ID'd it as a Marbled Gecko, the tag in Petco calls it a General gecko though. It looks like this except its markings were...

I'm having this too, I just got my gecko a day or two ago. The best I can describe it is thing of a bubble with smoke in it, its solid in the fact that it can be picked up with a spoon and not break, there is no liquid around it, just the sac. It has some white stuff in it but my gecko has put...
