Crestd gecko temperature

[Xolderfog]

hey, I have bought my crested gecko setupp, but the temperature inside the vivarium will saty at around 66-70f throughout the day and night, is this a warm enough temperature, and if not would a small heat mat do the trick?
Thanks :main_thumbsup:

Thats fine honestly, these guys can tolerate into the 60's. You can add supplemental heat, but I would use no more then a 15 watt light, not an under tank heater.

I got my crestie today, hes a beautiful blonde harlequin, but i have one more question, how often and how much is required for feeding a 4 month old juvie with the CGD?

A small gatorade cap with half an inch of cgd should be sufficient.

interestingly, i stuck my rhac cages on the top shelf of my rack and they sure seem to like hanging out on the hot spot.
ymmv!
