This came at a REALLY great time! I was just researching about these guys as I’m saving for them and my parents said I can FINALLY get one, and I couldn’t find a good up to date video! So thank you!

My crested and gargoyles are in my bedroom and every night you hear them doing crazy shit so the bigger the better. Eventually I’d like to get 24x24x36 for all of them but I currently don’t have the space for that. They are set up in 20 gal tanks w I heart gecko doors. I also give them uvb here and there

This was so convenient I just got my baby crested gecko on Sunday so this definitely helped with some of the confusion!

[koralreefs]

perfect timing, getting a crested gecko in June hopefully! Currently have a 18x18x36 set up for an adult.

Would you consider making a video on what plants are safe & good & recommended for crested geckos? I seem to be having a hard time finding a video form version of this and think it would be a great way to fill a need & promote your website 😀

[rachaelsleggedwonders]

Great video! I work with a rescue and we may be getting a big surrender of cresties. Great info!!

[AprielleCarpenter]

When you have to tell a person to give their pet “water” is EPIC!!! I must have just chuckled so hard!!!

[gingaround]

Just got one today from the midwest reptile show

[LM-rurs]

It still absolutely blows my mind ppl gow out buying living animals with out doing any kind of basic reading or now even just youtube ... I never thought not to give them water... same thing for the bearded dragon.. give em water or atleast a quick bath to drink! They drink water! Dealing with a dehydrated dragon rn it's insane 😢

Its definitely easiest when it comes to cost if you only have 1. Having a handleful makes that cost for the absolute dream setups for them to be costly and takes up a large amount of space. I got 4, two babies housed together in a 12×18×24, one adult male in a 18×18×24, and one semi adult housed in a 24x18×18 since he doesn't seem to much height since I've always seen him countlessly at night in the middle of the cage or walking around on the ground and was never in his top hide. All temps were pefect 78-80 max at the top, 70 mid and 65 ground. Hes the same temps in the 6 inch shorter cage and is uses every inch as far as ive seen. He actually climbs in his top hide

[Cannonbrick]

This information was absolutely amazing. But I do have one question, how long will it take for my crested gecko to start eating? I know that they take a few days to adjust to the new enclosure, but how long of is too long?

[RegenTonnenEnte]

Current ExoTerras don't rust anymore since they changed the metal mesh
And if you provide a warmer place for your crested gecko they will hide there during the day so I think providing a bit of warmth would be best.

[Nyoon-oo]

One of my gecko's setup doesn't have a light bulb. Does it need one or will the light from the room be enough?
