I am picking up my first crested gecko tomorrow. I have 2 leo's and this just adds to my obsession umm i mean my collection :D I am told that he/she is a fire morph?? She is itty bitty so I am going to keep her in a small kritter keeper at first and then when she gets larger move her in a permanant tank. I picked up some CGD today and I will be keeping her on paper towels as substrate. I have one of those thermometor/humidity gauges that i got with my leo kit but dont use. Is that ok for my crested? She has a piece of bamboo and a vine to climb up on and her food and water will be in bottle caps for now. Is there anything I am missing? Here is a pic. I am looking for recommendations on names :) With my leos they are all named after movie charactors so I am thinking I will go with book charactors for my cresteds lol

Adorable!
I give my babies a fake plant or vines, 1-2 pieces of bamboo, food/water bowl and someplace for them to hide really well if they want. Sometimes they are real active and running all over the place, then sometimes they just like go chill.

I ended up picking up its clutchmate too lol its addicting. They are both very alert and one is an attempted escape artist lol I am going to leave them be for a week and let them calm down. They are super cute and super tiny. Their dad was a Harlequin and mom was a Dalmation. I will get pics of the 2nd one as soon as I can.
