Well at the CRBE this weekend they were holding a raffle and I ended up winning a baby Crested Gecko. Well I know absolutely nothing about him but common sense comes in handy sometimes. He is currently in a Kritter Keeper with paper towel substrate, fake (washed) plants from the dollar store, and a shallow water dish. I plan on misting his cage once a day. I am currently feeding him dusted meal worms until my order of Crested Gecko Diet comes in. He will still get meals and crickets once or twice a week just as a treat along with his CGD.
Here's his current setup.
Size reference.
Now onto the questions..
1. Judging by the pictures, how old would you estimate him/her to be?
2. What is his/her color/marking identification?
3. How long until he/she reaches full size?
4. I have a 10 gallon that I plan on tilting so it is taller. At what age do you think he/she will be big enough for this tank?
5. As he/she gets older, is it necessary to mist the cage when it comes to him/her drinking? Is still water enough?
6. I found these flower pot bases at the Dollar Store for $0.25 each and thought it would be good for holding food. The inside has a shiny coating, is this safe for him/her to eat from?
I think that's it for now. I am sure I will think of a few more questions later on.
Thanks!
