Can anyone offer any options that wont cost me an arm and a leg? I'm looking into adopting a crestie and I want to see how much total it will cost.
A member on another forum gave me this checklist:
-tank, 10g min with secure lid
-climbing material
-clay pot (personal preference, you can turn these almost upsidedown on the ground or elevated and it can give them a nice hideout thats easy to get in and out if scared)
-shredded coconut sunstrate (personal preference again, imo its the best thing to hold humidity and wont mold)
-water bottle mister
-crested gecko diet/repashy two part mix
-thermometer/hygrometer
-~65-70% humidty or a little higher, thats where i keep mine at
-upper 70s temp
-its my understanding that you can feed them every night, mine are troubled eaters but then again i adopted 4 of them in a 10g tank. and have been working with them ever since, and finally affording to get them in a proper sized tank.
-keep handling out of the question for 2-3 weeks for distressing, and dont hold for too long at any given session
-try your hardest to not mess with the tail, it can come off due to stress, even accidentally grabbing it. they are fragile, but if it does fall then theres nothing to worry as its designed to heal fast.
Anyone have ideas? Suggestions? Corrections?
