The first is their store site, and the second is a blog about their boas. Wonderful couple and beautiful animals. I also recommend Cody at ProfessionalReptiles.com.
These are one of my favorite snakes...you are going to love them!
Very interesting...I imagine that would be frustrating for some breeders who may invest in a nice gecko and end up with surplus toes. :) The buck stops here for this particular gecko, but I wonder how many owners are breeding cresteds like this. I don't see it as being a big deal, but it's not...
Oh wow,,,thanks so much for the link! That must be it, although my crested's extra "toe" is a very thin, fragile-looking flap...just off (where else?) his back hind toe. I'll work on getting pics up. Since it's so common, I'm wondering if it has anything to do with temperature fluctuations...
My crested has a small skin tag on his hind foot. It's just off one of the toes and is very thin...looks easy to remove. I've examined it closely and it's not a stuck shed. I don't think it's a big deal by any means, but I was wondering if this will come off eventually, or if I should just...
Believe it or not, I got a beautiful crested gecko from someone on Craig's List (Orange County). She was breeding them for fun and had a nice selection of beautiful juvies...between $30-$40 depending on pattern. You may want to try there. Otherwise, there are two major reptile shows coming up...
Your best bet is to spot clean whenever possible. They tend to go a lot if you keep them on CGD and it can be tough to clean once it hardens up.
Some suggestions to make clean-up easier:
Keep your gecko in a glass or plastic (Sterilite/Rubbermaid) enclosure, as it makes wiping surfaces down...
Wow she's beautiful! I just read through your other post and am so sorry to hear that your anery female passed away. :( Your husbandry sounds like it's just fine,,,which makes it unusual that you're having so much trouble. The only time my KSB's won't eat is when they are about to shed. Once...
She's beautiful!
@ Kristi: My KSB was a pain about eating when I first got him too. I didn't want to feed live mainly due to the inconvenience of having to buy them all the time. I had success with this method: Place your KSB in a small deli cup (just big enough to fit her comfortably...
I don't have pics, but my friend has one and it's pretty cute, although nowhere near as cute as KSB's and not nearly as fun either. They are a uniform brown color and they look a lot like an obese night-crawler. Fun little snake, but if you have KSB's, the rubber boas may bore you. ;)
Oh my gosh, they're gorgeous! :) I love Kenyans and Rosies...although my Rosy has such a strong feeding response that she will often tag my hand and try to constrict, while my little Kenyan is just an all-around mellow guy, even when food is involved, lol. I'm actually getting another Rosy...
:) Thanks so much! I'm still trying to think of a good name for her...my friend and I were on the phone until 2 am debating names...lol. I've been calling her "Lucy" so far since she's feisty and a bit of a "red head" just like Lucille Ball... :main_laugh:
