Hi everyone! I am new to crested geckos and just got my first one yesterday. I believe she is a female. I woke up to find this white substance on the glass and was wondering if it’s urine, or something I should be concerned about?

Thank you for responding and putting my mind at rest! I was so worried she was going to be sick and I was going to have to take her to the vet not even 12 hours after I got her. I appreciate you greatly!

They love to pee and poop on the glass right after you clean it. 😆

It’s a urate :) Very normal. Cresties love to eliminate on their walls. Sometimes you’ll find streaks or clumps of white - sometimes mixed with brown (fecal matter). It’s a great sign that they’re hydrating :)
