Hopefully before the end of the year, I plan on having a crested gecko that my sister would receive from her coworker when her sister's breeding pair lays eggs, was wondering on a couple basic things. So far, I've read a couple care sheets, I read that they should eat Repashy CGD, should have lots of hides, no heat required, and a minimum of a 20 gallon tank.
When I have the gecko, how many times should I feed him and how much? Since they're omnivorous, it shouldn't be bad if I give him some crickets from time to time for him to hunt, right?
I've read they could use many different types of plants and if I were to have plants, I could only have their lights on for about 4-6 hours, but when I do add plants (I definitely plan on adding live plants, I'd like to make a vivarium) what plant species would be the easiest to care for? (Hardy, not needing light, less watering, etc)
And also, exactly how long would it take for a hatchling to grow to full size? (I don't plan on breeding it, just curious)
