    Cooling?

    This in my first winter with an adult Crested Gecko. I am noticing that Quin is spending more time burried under the substrate and not eating as much now that its cooler. I have also noticed that my juvie Crested and even my tiny Gargoyle are not taking in as much. Is this all due to the cooler...

    Meet Gilligan, my first Gargoyle!

    Got this little guy or gal on Tuesday from Tara Bowling :) These pictures aren't great but I didn't want to bug the poor thing too much. He's about 3 grams. I currently have him in a 5 gallon tank. I am hoping that he will be OK in there if not I will be moving him into something...

    Looking to purchase Mourning Geckos

    In a few months I will have a cage all ready to go for this species. If you keep these little beauties would you mind telling me about them? How do you care for them? Set-ups? Temperaments? Where did you get them? Anything else that you would like to share with me would be great!

    Fruit Smoothies

    I know that I'm not the only one who spoils their geckos to some fresh mashed fruit for time to time. Sometimes it's hard for me to come up with new things to try with my babies. My 3 get fruit smoothies 2x a month, they all seem to love them. We have tried a few different kinds of fruit...

    Owens Story

    This Saturday will be 3 weeks since I found Owen. I got him in a trade on CL. He was in an 18x18x24 Zoomed with a feeding ledge and 2 plants. The substrate was eco earth. That in itself doesn't sound bad does it? Let me continue. The feeding ledge was covered in poo and there was some kind...

    Little Pip's Toes

    I got Pip 2 weeks ago today. Last week Pip was 2 grams this week Pip weighed in at 2.2 grams. Pip IS eating and pooping. Now, here's the issue. Pips toes seem to stick together and form almost like a club foot. They just started doing this in the last 2 or 3 days. When I give Pip a sauna and...

    Leopard Gecko: Plastic tub as leo enclosure?

    I dont have a leo, I have a crestie. I would love to get a leo though. I know they have more care requirements and was wondering if those requirements could be met in a plastic rubbermaid type bin, like the 18 quart size maybe. What are your thoughts?

    CGD and crickets

    From reading on here I know that it takes awhile to switch to the repashy and not to feed crickets while making the change. I put Quin on GCD 1 week ago yesterday. He has since then shed. He is pooping. Its hard to tell if he is eating the CGD, but I think he is. Is he pooping because he ate...
