Id say for 2, you would need a minimum of 24"h Viv.

I feed my two CGD, and a few crix. I but a box of Crix and it lasts me 2 weeks, feeding 3 cresties and a Leo.. I guess it costs me £3-4 a fortnight to feed them all

What does CDG stand for and what sort of food is it?

Also, do any of you crestie keepers gut-load your crix before feeding them or calcium dust? Do they need it?
I had read that store bought crix tend to lose their nutritional value after a few days so I was wondering what your thoughts on that are?

I have read the previous posts but I just want to clarify-

Adult Cresties x 2- What is the MOST suitable housing you can get for them?

CGD is a crested gecko diet they can be fed on it with crickets but most people like to vary there diet

Yeh CGD isnt the be all and end all, alot of people talk about it, and alot of beginners get the idea in their head that CGD is like the only good food for their cresties, i like a varied diet of various insects throughout the month i rotate what type they eat etc and have a pot of baby food with calypso in the tank most of the week. an i have never had any problems/illnesses with my geckos so its all down to the keeper really, i know of people who have kept a healthy crested on nothing but the correct calcium dose and baby food, same with leachies.

I feed mine Banana, also CGD, baby food, and gut loaded Crix. I add calcium to the food twice a week, and only feed them 5 out of 7 days.

I have two adults in a 18x18x24"h exo terra
