    Crested gecko picky eater?

    Hey, I recently bought a new baby crested gecko. It was in a commercial pet store, that as usual did not care for him as they should have. He was raised his entire life on crickets. I got some CGD, but he wont touch it. I got him to lick it off my finger once or twice, but he just leaves the cap...

    Cross species question

    Ok before I even ask this, I want to make it perfectly clear. I AM JUST CURIOUS, I have not kept two different species of reptile together, and I dont know that I would, I am just curious. I went to the petstore today to buy some more fake plants for my new crestie, and some crickets for my...

    Help

    I have a crested gecko baby. The petstore I bought him from did not have any CGD, and raised him only on crickets. I have found one petstore around me that carries CGD, and I will get it later. For right now I bought some pear baby food, can I feed him this? How do I suspend his food in mid air...

    First crested gecko

I just want to double, and triple check my knowledge of cresteds, as this is my first one. Room tempurature is ok. Humidity should be at...

    So here is what I have

    Ok so I'm just making sure that I fully understand before I jump into it. Crested geckos like a taller tank, so a 20 gallon tall will work for one gecko. They need a lot of foilage to hide in. Paper towel is the best substrate. They eat mainly fruit, but also eat crickets and mealworms. They...

    First Crested Gecko

    I am planning on getting my first crested gecko soon. I will be putting him in a 20 gallon high aquarium, will this be sufficient? If not I see the cages in the pet store that are all screen, are those good? Here is my one main worry when it comes to non desert geckos (jungle?) I got a blue...

    Question

    I have been raising leopard geckos for awhile now, but I have an opportunity to get a crested gecko. How hard are crested geckos to take care of, I know its day and night different from a leo, but I kind of like the way cresties look, so I really wanna get him

    Help

    I have had a leopard gecko, which I am fairly certain is a female for a long time now. Today at the petstore I saw an adorable little baby gecko and bought it. I put it in the terarium with Sobe, and Sobe (the elder gecko) instantly acted odd. At first, just following around and lickin, then...

    Hey everyone, just figured I would post an update here. Sobe is eating good and starting to really grow. I have pretty much gotten everything downpacked by now I think, I do have some questions though. Sobe still is not to fond of being held, when I go to get him he will run around his tank...

    Leopard gecko: Odd eating "ritual"?

    Ok so in the past few weeks while observing Sobe I have noticed something rather strange. When he is hunting, and about to strike his tail will go up, nothing out of the ordinary right? but then he wags it really fast, comparable to a rattle snake almost... I want to get a video of it and post...

    Sobe is eating again!

    Hey guys just an update, I dont know what changed, Sobe just started investigating his cage more than usual tonight, so I thought I would give hime some crickets, (I have tried every night but with no luck) he successfully hunted down two crickets, which in my eyes is a big improvement. I really...

    Its been quite a while now, and Sobe still wont eat, or if he is I am not seeing it, Ill put 4-5 crickets in his tank and clean them out later but I never get an exact count... But anyway I was going to start feeding him one at a time to try and keep track of whether or not he is eating, and I...

    This is pretty hard

    Alright so its been a week now. I went on vacation for the long weekend, and left some small crickets in Sobe's cage for the few days. When I got home there was one alive, and the rest died behind the hide. I did not see any feces. I really can't tell if sobe is eating or not, and thus I can't...

    Leopard gecko tank: An acceptable fix?

    Hey guys, while inspecting my tank today I noticed that the UTH did not adhere correctly. I re stuck it on and it fell off again. I took Sobe out, and all his stuff. I cleaned the bottom with windex and dried it real well, I stuck it on again and I could still tell it wasn't gonna stay right, so...
