My 14 year old son is currently narrowing down his choices for his first pet. After seeing a couple crested geckos yesterday and reading a ton about them, I'm thinking if he doesn't choose a crested gecko I think I will
I've been doing a lot of reading and watching of videos, but I still have several questions I'm hoping you can help me with.
1) Most of the information I've found said you need a 18x18x24 size enclosure for a crested gecko. But this "complete gecko kit" (https://www.pangeareptile.com/store/...-optional.html ) contains a 12x12x18 enclosure...is this large enough for an adult crested gecko?
2) What is the best substrate for easy cleaning, to help keep the humidity where it is supposed to be, and the crested gecko will appreciate?
3) What are some of your favorite additions to your tank? How do you know when you've made your cage too crowded?
4) What do you consider essential additions to have in my tank? What individual tank have you found to work with crested geckos the best?
5) I know the crested gecko gets it water from the leaves/tank after spraying, but do you also leave a water bowl in your tank as well? Does something like this work well: https://www.pangeareptile.com/store/pangea-suction-cup-gecko-ledge.html
6) Is there any other advice you feel is beneficial for my family to know concerning crested geckos?
Thank you very much for your help!
