Someone dropped off this cute little guy at my friends reptile shop today, saying she might give him to me for free. What species is this? I was thinking maybe some kind of pachydactylus... He burrows in the sand and thats all she told me lol Also, does he look healthy? He is a few years old

This has been a great gecko week for me! I went to the Emerald City Reptile Expo over the weekend, and got two juvenile cresties from a really nice lady, $30 for he both of them! It was getting clse to the end of the show and after talking to her for a while she was just like "I want them to go...

My dream came true! My first non-gecko species is a fire skink, CB, and she's the sweetest thing! (about 70% sure its a she..) If anybody knows of any tips on guessing the gender of these guys (other than introducing two individuals) please let me know! Introducing Razi =)

My giant jungle tremper albino het for RAPTOR was shipped this week :yahoo: I've had leopard geckos for years, but he is my first non-normal, so I was pretty excited to get him. And I paid for him back in october, so it was really hard to wait so long for the weather to warm up! His name is...

I attended the first annual Seattle Metro Reptile Expo this weekend in Tacoma, and it was a great success! It was packed. I was beginning to think that I would actually make it out of there without buying anything (after drooling at everything for 2 hours), but then I found... VIPER GECKOS! A...

I'm beginning to think that these guys (E. agricolae/veillardi) are really neat and yet another species I'd like to get into in the future :) My question is: is there a common name for these geckos?? lol

Just thought I'd post a new pic of my male fattie. Not trying to be braggy or anything, but he's got to be the NICEST looking normal fat tail I've seen in any pet store my area. The pictures just don't do him justice. His skin has a velvety sheen to it for over a week after he sheds, and I love...

Hey guys I'm hoping to get a pair of viper geckos this summer and in my research, I came across an article on Gecko Time in which Jeff of JMG reptiles said that males of this species can be kept together happily. Can anyone else back this up? I havent heard of males getting along in ANY gecko...

...most likely lol. Here's my dark flame male and his future girlfriend (not her typical tomato-red in these pics). Such cuties :biggrin:

Hey guys, I've only had cresties for about a month now, and I think its time to do a real 'scrub down' of their cages. I've only been "spot cleaning" until now, because I'm not really sure how to go about cleaning all the cage furniture. Both cages have a live, potted plant in them, along with...

I'm a bit discouraged right now because I've only had cresties for about a month and I'm already worrying about their health.. :( My female is from petsmart. She's the sweetest girl and very handleable. She's a subadult, but I don't have a scale for weighing her right now. She eats well, I've...

Quick question: Should all herp vitamins be stored in the fridge after opening? Including repashy foods? I've only ever had one bottle of vitamins (I believe it was T-rex brand) that said "keep refrigerated". Oh, and if I keep my "shake n bake" baggie of vitamin dust outside the fridge for a few...

I can't help but share some pictures of my first pair of cresteds :banana: I definitely want to breed these two once I'm out of this tiny apartment. I think a little red combined with his pattern would be sweet! The red girl's name is Neytiri (yes, the avatar character hehe). If anybody has...

Caught your attention huh? NO I am not feeding my geckos fish lol. I just wanted to post this funny/cute video of my female Bindi attempting to eat my betta! Hope you enjoy :) oh, and please ignore my annoying baby talk voice :lol: I PROMISE I don't talk like that all the time! 041.flv video...

I'll be recieving my first online-ordered crestie this week and I was just curious: At what time did your guys' cresties arrive at your door? I know its usually "by 10:30am", but I wanna know just how much earlier it could potentially arrive... so I'm not like, in the shower or something when...

I bought a potted Croton plant (Codiaeum) last night, because it looked cool and would add color to my crested gecko's terrarium. Because of its bright colors, I started wondering if it was poisonous, and sure enough, it is. :? I've read a lot about it but I haven't found a definitive answer to...

My first crested gecko cage, and a reddish female (with pics!) My first crested gecko will be delivered sometime this month (hopefully! depending on the weather), and this is what I've come up with for a terrarium design. These are all fake plants from Michael's :lol: but I will probably add...

Ok so, most of us have witnessed (or been a part of) fiery discussions about which substrate is the correct substrate for different species. The back and forth between natural looking, and safe looking, or others.... I personally am on the fence in this debate, changing my mind often. But I...

Well I'll be getting my first cresties soon, and I know that once a crested loses its tail, it does not grow back. I want to avoid this, so I was wondering if anyone who has a crested, with a dropped tail, could tell me what situation caused this to happen? I know that it can be caused by fear...
