Crested gecko rescue

[Cravina1]

Hello all I’m new to this forum! I’m soon to be bringing in two female crested geckos next week and I have a few questions! I am new to cresties but already have a leachie. they’re coming in the same enclosure and have been cohabing since the person has gotten them and have been great together. She has said they are almost adult size. Any approximate weight they should be hitting to be considered “adult”? Also how big of an enclosure would two adults need? I will have back up enclosures incase they start to not get along but is bigger better for cohabitation?

Minimum size for 1 or 2 in my opinion is 18x18x24 (or 18x18x18 for one). I do successfullly keep my female cresties in a small group though there's no guarantee they'll get along. I have found that the 12x12x18 is too small for even 1 adult.

Do you think some think bigger then that like 24x24x36 be too big for them? Or maybe help with aggression? More space to hide? I would fill it up with lots of hides spots and plants probably two or three point of feeding?

Also any clue on morph or anything on them from what you can see?

It might be better to not risk it. Getting a separate enclosure for the 2nd one and keeping the first one in its original enclosure

You could go with the larger enclosure for both of them, or keep them separately to lower the risk. I've done fine with small groups, but it's not for everyone. To me crested geckos just look brown, except when they aren't!
