Hey everyone,
I took one of my females out to get some pics today and noticed this. The gecko had a lesion in the same area a few months ago, but this had healed up. I suspected the lesion came from too low humidity, which has since been raised. They live in a large planted tank, and, since I...
Hey everyone,
When I was away at college my family let me gecko tank get a little dry. It seems that because of this one of my adult females got a lesion on her head. I am not sure if this was because of a stuck shed or what not. I treated it with some petroleum-based antibiotic ointment in...
Hey everyone,
A few of my younger geckos have some stuck bits of skin on their face looking like the picture attached. How do you guys go about helping this along? have tried a warm wet q-tip like I do with larger pieces of stuck shed but this doesn't seem to budge with that technique. Or am I...
Hi guys,
My geckos grow really slow. They are healthy, they just grow slow! I know all of my parameters are right. I mist nightly and provide water bowls and feed Repashy CGD. They all get adequate space to move around. It has been brought to my attention lately that perhaps its the routine of...
Hello everyone,
I have been breeding geckos for a while, and I am beginning to sell my younger geckos. How do you guys figure the price of your geckos? My breeding stock aren't the most refined geckos, so I have a bit of variation in my hatchlings. Really, I have no specific line I am...
Hey everyone - I was wondering, as my babies get larger and larger, what you guys use to house your larger stock. I see so many different caging options, I don't know what is the best way to keep them! What do you guys use to house all your adult breeders and such? Thanks!

Hello,
I have a few crested gecko eggs in the incubator. After about a week or two, the eggs developed some mold on them. They have continued to get moldier and have not grown in size. I separated them so they did not get my halthy eggs dirty. My question is when are these eggs done for? They...
I have a few eggs that have turned moldy in the incubator. My question is, when can you tell a moldy egg is dead? I am keeping them, but I don't want ot be waiting forever if they have no chance. Thanks.

I am starting to think I might be doing something wrong.
I have quite a few geckos right now, mostly small. Some of my geckos, however, are now over a year old and they are still not near adult size. I want to know why they aren't growing fast.
Yes, I know that quick growth is not the best...
I just got in a new pair of Geckos this weekend, and they have polished off two cups of CGD that usually my other geckos don't finish. How much do your geckos eat? I just thought this was a weird behavior. Thanks.

Hello everyone! I am trying to win this scholarship (or at least get a shot at one of the editor-picks), and I'd appreciate it if you could read it and vote! Thanks!
I like to make fruit purees to offer my cresteds as an occasional treat to vary the diet. I have tried apples, mango, papaya, etc. My mom just bought a starfruit for me to try, but I wanted to pass it by you guys first. Is there any forseeable problem with this fruit? It doesn't taste citrus-y...
Ok. I thought I had this problem all gone. But it seems to have shown up again. One of my geckos I found today very lethargic. He can move, but the mobility of his front legs seems to be decreased. He moves very "drunkardly" and can barely climb. The gecko is drinking and I fed him some Repashy...
I've noticed some of my younger geckos groups doing this odd behavior. They'll touch their nose to another gecko's back. It doesn't appear aggressive, more like the precursors to courtship. Is this anything to be worried about?

I took a few pics the other night and wanted to share. Most of these are ones I bred, and I'm pleased with what I'm getting so far!
This one I just love. I call her the Crown Jewel because she is so pretty. She has this burnt yellow cream on her back, and her beige is very clear. She is partly...
I bought this sprayer to replace my old one that had, like so many before, just broke. It was a typical one that made your hand fall off. I tried one of the pressure sprayers but didn't really have any luck with it. This one I actually bought at a tack shop for horses. You typically put bug...
Hey everyone,
I was looking over my records today and realized just how long I've been keeping cresties. The thing is, mine take about 8 months or more to reach their breeding size. I feel like I see so many people that have geckos that grow much larger than that much faster. I was wondering...
I'm a relative beginner when it comes to gecko breeding. I'm just starting to get to the point where I can sell off my surplus. What do you guys do when you sell geckos? I've seen so many different experience levels apparent in posting on this and other forums. Is it just a chance you take when...
