    9 month old Crested Gecko, Housing?

    I got my first pet reptile (at age 54), a crested gecko, at a Repticon yesterday. He was born on September 26, 2020, and is about 4.5" including tail. I've currently got him in a 12"x8"x8" Herp Haven...brought him home in it and have him in it while I rearrange a Zilla 12"x12"x15" terrarium I...

    Crested Gecko 1st Timer...

    Thanks for the help. A local pet store has a good looking crested gecko that has an orange (my favorite color) tint to it. I couldn't see all of it's tail but it seems to be about 3 and a half inches long (including tail). If I were to get something this size, would a 12x12x18 (or 20) terrarium...

    Crested or Leopard Gecko as 1st Lizard?

    My son (soon to be 8) and I are looking to purchase our first lizard (his first pet other than a fish) and have narrowed it down to either a Crested Gecko or a Leopard Gecko. I originally thought we would go with a Leopard Gecko..they're colorful, readily available, and I've heard a great deal...
