I found a day gecko at a pet store. I didn't know the species, but asked around and the general concensus called her madagascariensis. When I got her she was healthy, but had pretty big calcium sacs. I had her a few months and then introduced her to a male. They've gotten along peacefully for...

Does anyone else use the Reptibreeze mesh cages? I have the XXL size, but there's no tray for substrate/water/planting. I tried a rabbit cage tray from the feed store, but even though it's the same (sort of) size, the sides flare out and it's impossible to make it fit. And it's too shallow...

Hi, I've checked the old posts for this question, but didn't come across it. Maybe didn't use the magic key word... But is there a way to hatch all females or all males by temperature? I've tried several temps and haven't really seen a difference. Just a difference in hatch times. Actually...

I got the results, positive for coccidia. I've been trying to find a post here about what questions to ask the vet and how you've successfully treated this parasite. Since the vet just left a message, should I call him back with any questions? He's 'researching' how to treat it. Is there...

My name is Michelle and I've had geckos for years. Leos, AFT's and Cresteds. I've been reading all I can on Uroplatus fimbriatus for several months and finally picked some up at a reptile show. I was told they were CB, but came to find out they're straight from the forest :? I'll be spending...

I have a pair of probably wc fimbriatus. I've posted about their "non-eating", but this morning, I noticed on the male, between his eyes there are white spots. I have a photo on my phone and will post that next. Could these be abrasions? It doesn't seem likely since they're down between his...

My wc fimbs are getting very skinny. I've offered either crickets or Dubia every night but they just won't eat. I've had them for a full 7 days now. Do you think they'll starve themselves? Is there a way to force feed? I hate doing that, but I'd hate to lose them to starvation worse. Thanks for...

I'm quickly putting together the final parts of my habitat. Is there a location on this board of your habitats/vivariums?

I have a new pair of fimbriatus that I got from a reptile show. Their display cage was absolutely FULL of crickets all over the cage and running over the animals too, so I'm sure they were way stressed. I have them set up in a very quiet area now, with a light schedule of 10on/14off and I feel...
