crested gecko

My new crested gecko smiling menacingly under the red light.

Hello! I'm a new owner of two baby cresties. They are eating amazingly well and I have had them for a little over a week now. I decided to try a really short handling session with them both. One took to it well and let me hand walk it for a minute then got put back in. The other decided to hurl...

Hi, I currently have two crested geckos, and I am in love with them! I got them both at the same time from a previous owner about 6 months ago. One of them, Merlin, is 3 I think. The other, Phoenix is around 1 and a half or 2 now. They came with the vivariums and decor, and I haven't changed...

I am in the process of buying a crested gecko, but something struck me as strange when I asked about the feeding. The prior owner, who has had the gecko for a while, has been feeding it the small jelly cups mixed with water. This diet has been paired with repashy and calcium dusted crickets...

Just saw this crested gecko at Petco Midlothian, Texas for only $60 what a steal! This poor baby was hiding in the furthest back corner trying to get away but they didn’t provide the proper hiding places for the baby and it makes me sad I can’t take her in myself. I’m just a newb to the hobby...

hello there, i am a person with zero reptile experience who is looking to change that with a crested gecko! but i need to know some things first 1. i am afraid of most insects with some exceptions, usually worms are the exception, can crested geckos be fed food that isn't insects? 2. if no...

Hello. I’m Cole and I’m new to this forum and relatively new to crested geckos. About 3 months ago I picked up my second crested gecko from my local pet store, but they were not sorted by any type of morph, all mixed cresties in one tank. Anyways, I picked up this guy and was wondering what...

Does anyone have any idea what morphs my crested geckos are?

Hi, I just brought home a crested gecko yesterday and have a few questions. What should I expect as of behavior for the next 2 weeks? When I brought it home, they crawled around the enclosure at first but since has hidden itself into a small hideaway. There has been no evidence of...

Hi! I am a new Crested Gecko owner as of yesterday. This is my second reptile that I am currently keeping (the first being an anole). The Crested Gecko I have is a juvenile, and in a 29 gallon conversion (I realize they do better at first in smaller tanks but this is all I had at the time). I...

I just brought home my new crestie yesterday. He was super active last night exploring around. He has lots of hiding places and things to climb. Today I noticed that he’s sort of sitting in a weird position and hasn’t moved. He’s still breathing but he’s lying almost on his side with his legs...

my local pet store has an exo terra monsoon solo mister on sale for 60% off, so it’s about $36 CAD. i know there are some mixed reviews about it but for the price can i go wrong even if it does break down? i’m skeptical but it’s not much money even if it only lasts a few months as i’ve read in...

Hiya! Im working on setting up a bioactive enclosure for a crested gecko. I haven't got him yet, plants are growing well, the heat is within the right parameters however I am having problems with my humidity at night. What is currently in the enclosure at the moment is draining medium...

I got my crested gecko back in April this year. She was/is around 2 years old when I got her. She has a 18x18x24 enclosure with plenty of greenery and hides. I feed her repashy every other night and mist her every night. Her humidity stays at about 70-80 at night and 50 throughout the day. Her...

Meet Reginald (Fergalicious) Decke!

I just recently as of yesterday got a 2month crested gecko. I thought I was going to get an adult, but the babies were more readily available. I am keeping it in a Cricket cage currently. (I will post a picture) I just need to know if what I have is adequate and what to improve or fix. Also, do...

Hello I just got my first ever crested geckos a few days ago. I got them from a reptile store and the keeper said that they were always together since birth. They are kept in a 45 x 35 x 80 (cm) bio active terrarium. I have a few issues with them however: One is bigger (14g) and the other one...

Hey watch my YouTube channel reptile life !!!! Here is my crested gecko can anybody tell what kind of morph is she exactly ?

Hello! I used to breed crested geckos and all of the babies I've raised over the years seem very large at 2 years old, but one in particular I decided to keep is only 9 grams at (2 years old in August). She eats, climbs, isn't too thin or anything. She's just so small!! Is there such a thing as...

Granite, my super dalmatian crested gecko. She was from my last clutch of two super dalmatian pinstripes. I want to breed again eventually!
