No less than 3 months ago, one of my cresties mysteriously escaped his enclosure, and was nowhere to be found. It was mysterious because I had left the lid to his enclosure on good and tight, yet the lid was half off when I checked on him, and no one claimed to have opened it. It was a very upsetting experience to have lost one of my geckos somewhere in the house, and not be able to find him. I had given up after a while, and figured that he probably got in between the walls and died (I have a very old home that has lots of cracks and holes and hiding places). Just yesterday, I opened up the door to the room that he escaped in, and there he was -- sitting in the middle of the room, eyes bright and shiny, head up, and surprisingly - not skinny! I was in complete shock. He was a little jumpy, but I am so surprised, but happy to have found him again. I wonder what he lived off of though.... I did have a number of crickets escape in the house a month ago, but what about before then? I guess that's another mysetery.
