    i do provide hides on the floor of my cages. some cresteds seem to prefer to sleep in the hides while others sleep in the vines and hide themselves under the leaves. definitely don't use anything sticky in the cage. you can use suction cups (often they come with the fake vines that pet stores sell). i use small zip ties to fasten the vines to the perches in my adult cages.

    I provide hides as well, although currently they are hiding under their paper towels. :rolleyes: I also provide a shallow water dish that they love to hide under as well.

    I've made a list of what I'm going to buy and have ready before I get my Crestie(s.) How's it look thus far?

    Cage:
    (crestie cage at the bottom) http://reptiledepot.com/reptprices.html
    (I'll have vines and such in there too)

    Food/water: http://www.pangeareptile.com/deluxeledge.htm
    and if that food/water isn't a good idea: http://www.pangeareptile.com/Images/...ves/big800.jpg

    Substrate:
    paper towell :carrot:

    Food: T-Rex Crestie Superfood

    Hide:http://www.bigappleherp.com/Rock-Dens?sc=2&category=7

    I may also add a humid hide, or should I make that one a humid hide?

    What size hide should I get(From that link)? I can't imagine they're snuggly and may want their space... would a medium be good? Or a small?

    Cresties can get 9 inches... (if what I read is correct) so I'd get one that will suport the size!

    cresteds like tighter spaces than you might think. imagine 3 adult females crammed into an empty paper towel roll one on top of the other... that's pretty tight. :P get something that is big enough for them to fit into but won't be too open around the gecko when it is inside.

    lol!! Ok, I think I will get the medium one, it's 7x8x3H. That should be good for two females.
