Thanks mate for a cracking crestie! Thought it had escaped through the hole in the top of my viv (drilled in all my tanks as they were built in case I wanted to install a misting system one day) which,in the excitement of getting the gecko, had not been plugged up I hunted high and low...and found him in his tank,pretending to be a dead brom leaf

As I said, absolute stunner! love him when fired up-bright orange with white underside and darker patches/stripes..sort of tigeresque. Thanks again mate

that's better Sam, he looks more like the gecko I picked out for you now.
I always try to pick out cresties that are sold at night so that I can choose the best coloured ones although it always amazes me just how much they can change  _________________

There definitely is a great change form day to night..but the pictures dont really do it justice either way. Ive seen him more orange and with darker stripes than this, its just capturing that in a picture which is hard with a nocturnal animal!
He doesnt seem to be too fond of his CGD, im just hoping the crickets and Bean weevils I put in are being eaten rather than just hiding! Are there and little fruit tit bits I can give until I get a few more crickets? _________________ Interested in amphibians?

I make the cgd very running, like water. I'm sure he'll do fine on the been weavils and crickets too _________________

where do you put it? in an elevated feeding dish or on the ground in a dish? _________________ Interested in amphibians? Join us at Myamphibia for friendly banter, amazing pictures and great information. Make some amphibious friends today! |

Heres an update of Superhands...
Grown quite a bit! My housemate (who was looking after my zoo for a while) was concerned about his tail being necrotic or fungally infected...however I had to explain that thats just his patterning  _________________ Interested in amphibians?
