Picked up a 2012 Crested Gecko!

Super cute! I love the cartoon-like contrast in the size of the body and size of the head.

If the board could help me clarify some questions id appreciate it! Thanks

- Ive read and heard that cresties dont need a heat source. My room temperature stays around 70F - 74F.

- Do cresties need a water dish? The vendor told me that spraying/misting down the cage would be good enough, and that he would just lick off the cage. (which ive seen)

- How often am i suppose to be feeding him? I was given a powder formula to mix in with water, but i would prefer to feed crickets.

- How many crickets per feeding? Do i just leave them in there? Do the number of feeding crickets grow as he matures?

- Coco Husk bedding ok?

- Branches and dead leaves in the cage ok?
