I looked at him last night, and saw him trying to follow a cricket up the screen, but he was slipping... So i picked him up and looked at his feet. they still have white on them. I soaked his feet in water. Then i left him for the night. He still has the shed this morning. What should i do? cause hes not getting food..

Did your gecko shed everything but his toes? If so you can first try to rub the shed off with a moist q-tip or you can use tweezers to carefully remove the shed. Bump of the humidity in your cresties enclosure to ensure that this doesnt happen again. Keep us udated, good luck.

Thats a really nice crested!!! Just mist to bump up the humidity in the enclosure with more frequent misting...he should be fine :)

just use some tweezers or foreseps, but still be very careful your pulling on the shed, not the skin.
