Goodbye little harliquin hatchling
This morning I checked on my three crestie hatchlings that I had bought at the south haven repticon in october, and noticed that my favorite, the haliquin was lethargic and didn't do the usual jumping to escape when I held it and when I put it back in it's critter keeper it was like it was of ballance and had it's leg almost hiked, I thought it was the temps so I bumped up the space heater in my herp room to 77f. A few minutes ago I went to check on them and the gecko was lying motionless on it's side in a strang position not breathing.
I buried it in the yard just now. .

I'm sorry! It's always sad to lose one.
I thought cresties liked it a bit cooler?

Thank you for the condolance it is very much apprieciated, from what I've read anything below the mid 80s is fine but mid 70s is perfect.

That stinks It always makes me sad to lose a lil lizard.
I was into cresties for awhile, but eventually decided to rehome them and get more into BP's. I rehomed them all to what I thought were great homes, but I recently found out that one lil girl (my oldest, strongest, best looking girl) died 'mysteriously' (it was a strange craigslist transaction for some other post). Come to find out, the guy basically cooked the poor girl, and had her housed more like a beardie then a crestie. I even printed out care sheets, very good information for each owner, along with a months worth of food.
I'm still kinda angry about it.
