When you do shows you encounter strange people and the strangest have been Gecko people. ;)

That I can live with. I'm strange, too !!! LOL

When we had those "forced" military wives get together;s all the ladies would talk about about the latest "Coach purse" they bought, or who is going to hold the next "Pampered Chef" party. And there was I. Talking about giving shots to my latest rescue snake and taking their stool sample to the Vet.... ;)

I sure got some strange looks :D

I might have to install a little cute black "curtain" in front of the enclosure.

I don't think I want to see "fun time" while doing the check book or browsing forums.

I could custom make a little cute black curtain with white letters on it that reads "Psssst, fun time going on..."


Deborah, please tell me they don't make "noises" during "fun time"...that would add a whole new dimension to the whole thing!! LOL

I honestly have not seen much of this "fun time" with my males. They do make noises when breeding, and sometimes females will squawk at each other if they are housed together. But usually a single male doesn't vocalize much if at all.

That is good to know ;)

I joined this "crested gecko" facebook group, and there seems to be a lot of talk (and pics) about fun time !! Just today there were at least 2 such discussions (with pics) that I saw when I briefly looked over some posts :P

Example:

CHILDREN CLOSE YOUR EYES !!!

Maybe they just have fun time loving geckos, LOL.

Hopefully mine won't be a horny toad, and if he is, that is ok. I won't get him any Beanie Babies, but I will avert my eyes and dutifully clean up ... (after donning industrial sized rubber gloves)

I will still love that little cutie. I can't wait for him to arrive.

And Taylorr, you need to get one too, now, you need to be on this journey with me :)

Is it ok to offer a variety of different food ? Or do they get hooked on one food ?

He currently eats Repashy Mango. I also ordered the bug versions of Repashy and Pangea.

Should I stick with what he is used to for now? Or offer different things ? He is still so little (10gr) I want to make sure he will eat ..

No, I use no toys or curtains. Even when I was breeding cresteds and spending hours in the gecko room feeding and cleaning at nights I saw it happen maybe one time. Granted, I don't have any of my male geckos where I can see them 24/7, but I still don't think it is an every day type of behavior.
