I currently have 3 leopard geckos. My first one I got last October, so I shall have had her a year soon :D
Her name is Mu-lyn (fondly nicknamed Mu [Moo]). She can be a picky eater. She'll eat once or twice a week, if that.

My second leo was a rescue from the store I work at. Not really a rescue, I guess, but he was missing his back foot. So I took him after my shift was up.

And a more recent, but not today recent:

And my last gecko, which was originally adopted/rescued by my friend, and then her mother demanded she get rid it, so he/she is now mine. I'm pretty sure she's female, though still a little young. So for now her name is Shayla!
First day:

And little more recent:

And my other gecko, who is a dalmation crested, is Tatsu! I swear he's a tokay reincarnated. He's very bitey, but I love him anyway. Just don't handle him much. I like how their back legs look kind of baggy with that skin flap.

Looks like the start to a nice collection. :main_thumbsup:

Because your crested is a little bitey, I would suggest some cage furnishings that it can climb on and hide/sleep in. The artificial plants/vines are great additions to any crested cage. My cresties spend almost all their time in theirs. Best of Luck! :main_yes:

Do what ink said. Just dont add too many. We lost a crestie that way once. They can hide like theirs no tomorrow and escape pretty well too. And the one with the missing foot, good call. Your store would probably have it given away or put down anyway. If that ever happens to a gecko im working with well, i would have to eat the reptile care person.

My crestie has stuff to hide in, vines, hollow logs, vases, plants, etc. And i'm pretty sure there isn't an escape unless I left the door open, which I don't. He's in an exo-terra habitat.
I'd also never consider giving my animals away no matter how bitey. I love them anyway <3
Ah, and one other thing. No, my store wouldn't have put them down as they can lead totally perfect lives. But we would've adopted them to someone who was willing to take care of them despite their minor disability. Duo isn't slowed down at all by his lack of a foot. I have driftwood in his habitat and he's all over it. I work at a Petsmart.
And thanks everyone. ^^
