Finally! My Crested Gecko!!!!


Yay! My baby! My camera is really weird, but I finally got some good ones! My boyfriend's a natural at handling him, and the second is of them gazing into each others eyes....Aw!

So far, I have 2 ideas of names. First is Guy, just because that's what I have been calling him. No idea what sex he is, and I'm too lazy to find out. Is it weird I don't really want to know? And for that same reason, I was thinking of naming him Lola. Hahaha so here he is!

Cute! It looks like my Tiny who is a flame with some dalmation marking.

You can't really tell their gender till their about 10 grams, but a male will have pores on the scales above the vent and will develop a bulge.

He's such a cool Guy, I love him to pieces even though he's still very wary of me. I used to have a red lamp for heat, but I took it back. Im thinking of getting a red lightbulb though, Guy was so cool to watch crawling all around at night!

You don't need a heat lamp sinc they don't bask.

I have a blue night light (forget what it is actually called) that I use sometimes when I want to look at the geckos at night without distrubing them to much.

Yeah, thats why I took my first one back. I was thinking of just getting a small infared lightbulb to watch him. I'll look into the blue ones
