They are not for food, they ate for a 'clean-up crew' for my vivarium. I want it to be a bio-active tank that is somewhat self-sustaining. Proper insects and worms keep the soil clean an fertile.
I wish more people would answer.
Hello
I have just recently overhauled my Crested Gecko's vivarium.
I am in an area where I cannot buy woodlice for my bio-active viv, so was wondering if anyone had any success with wild caught woodlice and earthworms? Are they safe for use in a viv?
Is there a way to, in a sense...
Hello
I haven't posted in a while...anyway, my crestie, Rodney, has stopped eating the past week - maybe a bit longer than that, now.
I was wondering if it could it be the heat? I live in Ontario, Canada - this past month it has gotten very hot (mid 30's, C) with no air conditioning...
Oh and she is intending to get some Repashy food this week when she goes to the reptile store. Hopefully that will help as well.
ALSO
She has noticed that about a third of his tail (at the end) has shriveled a bit and is kinda 'squishy' feeling. He won't use his tail now.

She has a light in the enclosure to keep it warm.
Her humidity is always up at good levels.
The tank is (I THINK) a 50 gallon.
She doesn't feed bugs, she gives them a home-made Crestie diet (ground chicken...

She bought her (approximately 4 month old at the time) male 11 months ago, and he hasn't really grown much at ALL. He still looks like he's only a couple months old. What could cause this? Malnutrion or something genetic...
Hello
I have a young male crestie. He will catch his own crickets, but will not eat CGD from his dish (which is a small plastic tupperware lid).
He will, however, eat from my hand, which is what I have had to do, since it is a waste to set out CGD every night only to have it spoil.
Is...
OK
Got this liddle crestie a couple weeks ago. Everyone told me he shouldn't be in the 15 gallon vivarium since he's so small. So I put him in a 5 gal with a hide, a stick and paper-towel substrate. Now he's not eating. He was eating when he was in the big tank (yet he would only eat while I...
ok great. ya the website I was gonna buy CGD on won't ship to Canada :main_angry: :main_thumbsdown:
He ate his first two crickets yesterday!! :D I was so excited. He will only eat them out of my hand, which is strange since he's new I thought he wouldn't really want much to do with my hands...
