How often do you recommend a vet check up for crested geckos?

I thought so, on other websites people said "If your unsure, it's female" but I just wanted a second opinion, Thank you!

I've had dusty for over a year, and always thought of her as female, but now I'm uncertain. This is the first time I got a good view of her underside. Help? If you need closer photos I can do that, but it felt weird in the moment.

Okey doe! I can easily bring the CGD, and of course a spray bottle with water. I assume a paper towel at the bottom is recommended too? Also, I have silk vines (very soft) that I can put in, she can't get injured on them. She is a very calm gecko, but I still want to make sure everything is safe...

Really? I've seen them in dull blues mostly, a long with sand and as I said, black with gold. Also, I know I should've made a form for this but I don't have much time, what is the best way to keep a gecko for a week trip? Nobody near me knows how to feed my gecko (shes picky and will only eat by...

OK! I love the "ducky" ones, those are beautiful. In my backyard there are black and gold ones which are pretty too.

Springtails? Yeah I will get some potted flowers or something for my bedroom and they appear in there. Cool animals, as far as looks I prefer isopods, but springtails will work too.

Okey doe! I plan on updating her to a 18x18x36 when she grows a little bigger in the next year or two. Do you have to get ispods? I'm perfectly fine with whatever bugs are needed.

Also, do crested geckos do better with live plants? I'm asking because I always hear its better, but honestly she loves her silk plants, and they are easier (and rearanging is easier of course).

Oh of course! Sorry I didn't make that clear! Of the crested gecko diet, she loves watermelon best (and the tropical fruit mix). I've tried mango once before, and she didn't like it, however she wasn't very hungry. Thanks!

My crested gecko, Dusty, loves fruits, but not always the most healthy ones. She loves bananas, but of course those are only good as a very occasional snack. I've tried apples, but you have to let them get soft for a while and she doesn't love them, and I've tried grapes (only very small...

My gecko, Dusty, enjoyed a slightly brown banana this morning! She was eating it like a true predator! And obviously she didn't eat the whole banana, we share our bananas.

LOL, what's better than spoiling your pets. XD Not to making them sick of course, but a little cake two times her size every once in a while won't harm her lol. Love the username BTW!

Hi howdy hey! Dusty recently enjoyed a gecko friendly cake I made for her. XD This isn't meant to be related to her birthday or anything, I just felt like it. NOTE, I removed the oats after taking the picture, I'm not sure if they are safe or not for cresties. The ingredients are gecko friendly...

Horizontal, and you have a good point. It's 18 high, 30 long, and 12 deep. I'm open to getting her an exo-terra or something like that, but if the 29 gallon will work I'm open to staying with that too. Really I want whatever is healthiest for my crested gecko, I want her happy. She's in a top...
