Hi acpart,
So, just when you think things are figured out, they're not. I tried feeding dubia roaches instead of crickets to my day geckos, because they just don't die as easily, and I can put them in a dish. But, they just sit there, and the geckos have no interest. When I was feeding little...
Hello Again!
So... Again, my male and female Day Geckos are healthy (I believe). They eat, shed, are growing, have a very nice home, etc. My concern today... I don't know what "normal" behavior looks like. They are approx. 9 months old. The female rarely leaves the front of the glass. She...
Hi!
So, To quote the local "Bug Lady," Crickets are ego killers. I'd like to switch my Day Geckos from Crickets to Dubia Roaches, because they are easier to keep, and die less. I've offered a few different sizes, all small enough, at the most eight at a time, about five times, in their regular...
Question... So, I've been gutloading crickets for my geckos, and mealworms for the blue birds. How long can I keep them with the same mustard greens/sweet potatoes? (I also use Rapashy powder.) I've been leaving them in a container with them for a few days. Well, actually, the mealworms make the...
While I have you... Along the lines of Geckos being Geckos... I tend to always have Pangea available for them. They eat less than 1/4 tsp. of powder in two days. I use two varieties, and also feed then calcium covered baby crickets every other day. Safe to assume they won't overeat? Also, why...
Great answer!!! I like letting them be Geckos. And I hope you're right about people wanting them. Thanks!!! You are a shining light in the Gecko people's world!
Hi All!
So, the good news is that after a few months, a few mistakes, and a lot of advice, I finally feel like a competent, responsible Gecko "parent." They're only 7 months at this point, but when I bought my Crimson Days, the seller didn't want to split the male/female pair. I was happy to...
Thanks! Always good and fun to hear other's experiences. I've never touched mine. The female is chill around me, the male runs. This morning I woke to the female on the front glass with her butt on the very top and her tail at a 90 degree angle against the top. UGH! I opened the other door and...
