Well for a while i wanted a crested gecko but never really pursued it. well anyways after talking to this girl for about 3 months and her being afraid of my boas when they are out and her saying she liked geckos i decided to get one for myself and couldnt pass up the deal on this little guy. he is super calm and settled in nicely to his cage.

yes it is a petsmart find but for $40 i couldnt pass him up. he would jump off my girlfriend to come back to me. i cant wait till he starts growing.
one question tho. How do i know he is eating? just by finding poop in the tank?
any first time tips for crested geckos? right now i have him on CGD and misting twice a day. his temp is around 72-75 in the tank and have his water on the ground and food up on the wall. but i will be buying the magnetic containers and switching over to cocohusk in about 3 months once i notice he eats and poops regularly.
