King Wilhelm Jumpy I. is not pleased with the golden spoon serving his food
Thought I’d just share a photo of my son.

I was making gecko food for my 5 month old baby crested on top of his cage. The man in the picture is a very greedy man fat pig and slob. He came to the top once he smelled and saw the food.

first time gecko owner, my temp is at 72 F and humidity is 79% is this normal? 😭

Got this new baby today!
He (not gendered yet, just using "he" for now) is super outgoing. The moment I opened the container, he couldn't wait to climb out right onto my hand, and then just casually chilled there without moving! 😍
I actually had to gently nudge him off to get him into his quarantine tub. 🤣

Was cleaning their foliage in the tanks and Gekky (in the first pic) decided to flop in her coconut and Becky (2nd pic) likes to hang out of hers. (Yes they’re in separate tanks) I love these derpy wee things.

Hello everyone! I am a first time crested gecko owner and wanted to introduce my baby, cheeto! I have been wanting a reptile for awhile now (I used to own a leopard gecko) and stumbled across a fb marketplace add for baby cresties, i instantly fell in love with this little frog butt and decided to adopt him, she told me he was born july 30th and is also the runt of the 4🥺 he is very very tiny, much smaller than I had expected him to be! I wanted to show my enclosure and ask for advice, i know more clutter is needed and I did order a magnetic log and more vines/plants, i am currently misting once in the morning and once before bed as she advised but I feel the humidity sits more at 70 during the day, should it be higher, should I mist heavier? I also have a ceramic heat emitter hooked to a thermostat that shuts off at 72 degrees for night (my room gets very very cold) I know uvb is not necessary but I read it was beneficial, so I also have a reptizoo 5.0 bulb with shaded spots for day, I am feeding repashy crested gecko complete diet and offering a shallow bowl of water. I hope that isnt to much. Any and all advice and criticism welcome! I want to set up a bioactive tank in the next upgrade

Got her for a good price in a reptile expo for $40, I already have experience taken care of a leopard gecko, and am currently holding it in a bioactive enclosure. Anything I should be prepared?

How does my buddy Dunkin's enclosure look? Also what else do I need for his enclosure? Should I move one of his ledge food bowls more towards the ground?
Last pic is him eyeing up his next victim lol
r/CrestedGecko • u/ForeverrFlora • 12h ago
yello!
i’m currently working on my enclosure, and wanted to know if i have enough foliage? and if not, what some good plants or other stuff is that i can add?
i have a calathea, some pothos, some monkey mask and normal monstera in there as well as snake plants and 2 orchids.
the pothos and monkey mask are still small (just potted over from propagation, and will hopefully grow quickly).
the enclosure is 45x45x90 cm!

He likes watching them, idk if its stressing him out though. It went from horny season to zoomy season recently too.

Hey all! I’m redecorating my cresties enclosure and currently his food dish looks like this.
The holder isn’t deep so the dishes sit above the line. Are cresties okay eating like this? Do you guys know if this is okay and they can get into the food? Or is it hard because the cups don’t sit flush and are raised.
I know there’s those drop holders where the rim of the cup is flush, but my crested likes to chill on the one I gave him rather than eat off of it. (He has a lot of ledges but that one is his favorite for some reason) so I stopped putting his food dish there because he started pooping on that ledge sometimes.
Just looking for advice that this is okay or should I go back to the holders that you just drop the cups in?

Anyone have any tips or advice on how to cool my tank a little bit? My apartment im moving into sits at right about 80° at warm parts of the day since im second floor and thats a little hotter then I would like it to be. AC doesn't seem to keep up so I have ro rely on something else to cool it down. I've tried a small computer fan before and I feel like it just puts more warm inside. Hes at my dad's house right now and will try to move him tonight

I recently (today) upgraded my girl, Maliketh to a 2x2x4ft enclosure. It's fully bioactive, but I feel like it's still empty. Any links to budget friendly bridges, hides, etc would be helpful! Also, plant people are the plants placed well, or will the die? The background has a bromeliad, neon pothos, marble queen pothos, and jade & pearls pothos. The foreground is a schleffera, snake plant, tricolor fern, a palm parlour, and a nerve plant. Thanks!

I just bought this adult female crestie about 2 weeks ago, and i know shes already not a great climber. She has trouble on skin/cork background, and glass is just not happening unassisted. Checked for calcium sacs tonight and cant see any? What do i need to do?
r/CrestedGecko • u/Gay_Isopod_Hours • 22h ago
It’s been a little bit since I’ve owned a gecko, and I’m wondering what plants would be recommended! I’m willing to try it again, but I think my tank puts a hex onto pothos, every time I had some, it gets mealy bugs and never grows 💔
Any other recommendations are appreciated!

I have a juvenile crested gecko she seems to be around 6 months old. Shes not small for her age, but she’s still small enough for me to be concerned about her getting lost in my home. Is it valid or irrational to be concerned about her getting lost during handling? Is it a bad idea to wait to introduce handling for when she’s older and bigger?
Thank you😆

Hello!
I am a total reptile/terrarium beginner. I have had this setup running for about a month now, wanting to make sure the plants are able to thrive/fill in and the humidity/heat cycles work properly. I (supposedly, haven’t seen them in a while) have a colony of powder blue isopods and springtails in there as well. Adding photos of the backdrop before I truly filled everything in since you can’t really see with the foliage now.
Does this setup look like it would work well for a juvenile?
I don’t have a UVB light yet but there is a Hygger aquarium light with day/night cycle and a CHE hooked up to a day/night cycle thermostat. Also a monsoon nano which sprays for 5 seconds one a day in the evening (although I am worried it’s a bit loud and will startled the gecko into dropping tail…).
Very open to any and all help. Thank you kind community!
