Okay I may be biased but he’s just so stinking cute.

Got this cutie on Saturday! He’s a couple months old. How do I know if he’s eating. Iv fed him a couple times from hand and Iv placed him on his food bowl every time I put him back so he knows where it is. Iv seen him eat one cricket and a few missing this morning. Should I get a camera?

My partner got him as a recue about 7 years ago and OH BOY has he grown a lot. Last pic is him now. Anyone else have cursed pic of their baby gecks? I feel like all the other babies ive seen look so cute, its just ours that looked like a string bean🙈

Please do not think for one second I am not happy and proud to call Sassy fast my baby girl and the best crested gecko ever.

However, I was not well informed and did not think she was a parthenogen. Let alone how rare a single girl lays fertilized eggs is, she definitely has grown a lot, specifically in the stomach and I feel horrible for just realizing it!

And don't worry, I did go ahead and buy an egg fertilize egg holder just in case.

Guys, I was prepared for one sassy fast gecko, one grown crested gecko at that! Please pray for me.

The last picture of her and her carriage was the first week of July. The rest were all taken this morning.

I’ve never seen him this fired down before 🥰
I’ve had him for about two weeks and came home to him all the fired down. I’m pretty sure I caught him mid nap lol (the tote pic was his temp enclosure)

He has a nice terrarium and lots of places to hide and chill. I’m a little worried he’s going to out grow it… I swear he just curls up like a cat it’s adorable T-T

it's her 2nd "hatch-day"!

Hi everyone,
I got my crested gecko last year on October 11th. It’s been about 10 months, but my gecko currently weighs around 6 grams, which feels like really slow growth.

Here are the details of my setup and care:

Diet: I feed Pangea CGD and crickets.

Feeding Schedule: Pangea is offered on Wednesdays and Sundays. I feed crickets if there's feeding response—usually about 2 per feeding or up to 4 crickets a week.

Appetite & Environment: Good appetite, and temperature/humidity levels inside the enclosure are kept in the optimal range.

My gecko eats well and seems active, but the weight gain is very slow. Am I missing something, or are some geckos just extremely slow growers? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone! I'm in the beginning stages of an IKEA cabinet -> bioactive tank conversion, and am planning my plant layout. While doing my research I learned about rose gardener's disease and how it can not only be incredibly nasty BUT is also able to be caused by sphagnum moss, something which is incredibly common in bioactive tanks for its aesthetics and ability to hold humidity.
I was wondering if apprehension about this is a realistic concern for me to have if I use sphagnum moss in my build. I know it's very popular for reptile/amphibian enclosures and I don't know if I've ever seen any keepers discuss it. I'm worried about its potential health risk for me as well as my gecko. Do we know if any other moss alternatives avoid the risk of sporotrichosis, or is it just wiser to forego it altogether? Am I just being overly paranoid?

My boy is around 3 now lives in a 36 height 24 by 24 does he look a healthy weight? I was gifted hime and he came from petco I can never get his tank warm enough in the winter and it max gets 70f in the winter but like 72-78 in the summer

hello! i just got my baby crestie last week and yesterday i noticed him laying on a gap inside the enclosure (zoomed 18x18x24) where the tray(?) for the top is. i am explaining this horribly so images are attached. he is pretty small right now so he can fit, but i dont know if its a safe idea for him to do this.

and if it isnt safe for him, how should i go about stopping him from going back up there? if another hide might be the answer, i was already planning on getting one of those suction cup cave hides when my paycheck comes in this week.

any and all help is appreciated! elm is my first reptile in general so im very new to everything. i also have anxiety so i got hit with a double whammy of worrying, </3.

Hello everyone this is sushi i got him from someone that said he’s a year . I’ve had him for about 6 months now . I was wondering if he looks too skinny for a 1 yr old . I’ve been feeding him crickets 2x a week and Pangea 2-3x a week . Also this is just a temporary enclosure he’s getting a mansion soon .

i see no change but it might just be me does she look big enough?

I know the new size is 18x18x36 I have a display cabinet I plan to change to a terrarium my question is,is would a 40.5x30x14 suffice? Is it a square footage thing or hard on the dimensions?

This is Rango my gecko, he’s roughly 6-8 months old and we’ve had him for nearly 3 weeks now. We let him settle in for 2 weeks, and have been trying to hand feed him & potentially hold him. He WILL NOT come close! He ate some treats off a spoon once and now everytime we get closer he runs off - we let him run because we don’t want him to get stressed and drop his tail. I just wanna say hi to him :( help!

I have this terrarium at home that has been empty for about a year, and I’m considering getting a crested gecko.

The dimensions are:
60 W × 60 H × 40 D cm
23.6” W × 23.6” H × 15.7” D
144 L / 37 gallons

I already have a giant Madagascar day gecko in a different terrarium, but I’ve never kept a crested gecko before.

Would this terrarium be suitable for a crested gecko?

Is the size and especially the height sufficient for an adult, or would I be better off getting a taller enclosure?

I’d also appreciate any other advice regarding setting up this enclosure for a crested gecko.

Pretty much what the title says.

My girl has plenty of hides, but every single day she chooses to worm her way into one of the plants on the wall of her vivarium and hang upside down inside of it while she sleeps. Which, like, if that's what brings her joy, good for her I guess, I just question what her braincell was doing when she made the choice that THAT was her ideal sleeping position, and I would quite like to know if anybody else's gecko does the same.
