    2 prowling geckos and a sleeping anole. Last night This is the piece I'll be turning into their new home as soon as we get some spring time weather. Already comes with a light. So it's a good starting point and great dimensions. This my piebald ball python next to the lazards.

    Anoles are actually great little pets. Justbe aware they need crickets every 2or 3 days which can be annoying so you'll need a little cricket pen so you can buy several dozen at once to have food on hand as needed. But they offer so much movement and personality during the day when the geckos...

    Hey. It's been about 8 months since the tank has been up and running and it's gone through several changes. I changetthe sticks around once in a while and some plants come in and out like the jades and orchids. The biggest real change though has been the flooring. That cut out fake floor was...

    Why do crested geckos like the cold?

    Oh. Wow thanks. I for some reason thought they were from the amazon. Still though, last night here in New York it was 77 degrees. It's hard to imagine nights on that tropical island not getting into the 90s. I guess they have a good island breeze

    These pictures are a bit clearer. You can see all the deep air pockets still yellowish and how sloppy I was near the wood. But you can't really see any of it when it's all together plus I will be putting some mosses in those areas. And I glued on the stick that I forgot about when I sprayed the...

    K I put more dark gray in all he recesses. Then went over all the tops and some sides with a lighter gray. Then finally dry brushed everything with a very light gray for high lights. U can see one picture has it half done to show how much difference in depth and details it makes. Also put a...

    Why do crested geckos like the cold?

    If they are from the rain Forrest where temps in the days are 80-100. Why would they have us keep them from 65-80? I know they are nocturnal but they are still there in the day time. Every other nocturnal amazon reptile likes 80-90.

    New geckos. and other pets

    Thanks. Yeah the spotted one is called a dalmatian. This one they said was a super dalmatian because his spots were big/numerous. he I guess will probably get some more when he gets bigger. He's super friendly and chill... my other one is like a wild animal. I gotta hold her more so she stops...

    New geckos. and other pets

    Very inactive forum huh? Figured this would be a more lively bunch. Thought it wwould be like the reef forums... but I guess reefs have much more species diversity and lots more equipment and difficulty so I guess there is just more to talk about over there. But still I'm shocked no one talks...

    New geckos. and other pets

    Oh. My geckos haven't been eating too much of this papage a fruit mix should I be worried? Maybe they are eating tiny bits and I can't tell. I figure tomorrow I'll go get them some crickets and CGD from the pet store. At 7-8 grams do they need pin heads or regular crickets ok? How many should I get?
