Took my kids to repticon last weekend and came home with a crestie which was a surprise because we were going to get my son a beardie ( which we did ) . But my daughter fell in love with the crested geckos . So we brought home Stickie , not sure if male or female but my daughter says it's a girl .

Right now she is in a 10 gallon tank with braches , plants & a hide though Stickie never uses it , he prefers to crawl under the paper towel where it's folded over . She climbs all over the tank at night , my daughter will sit and watch him in the dim light .
We have the Repashi food - it looks like a bit was missing by the second day when we changed it out . But we have not seen any poop yet . The breeder said it can be a week before she poops , does this sound right ?
We also mist her 2-3 sprays in the morning & again at night . It this good ?

Any other advice you can give us will be greatly appreciated .

The breeders said she was yellow in color - though in the pic she looks more orange . She has a few small spots but seems to be getting more .

Very cute crestie they're the best! That amount of misting should be good, really there should just always be a little bit of water on the sides/plants so as many times a day to keep that depends on the tank cover ventilation. Spots on her is awesome that means she is part dalimation too! Yeah it does take them a while to poop I really wouldn't worry too much about it I personally have never seen mine eat but they poop all the time so I know that they're eating so don't get worried about not seeing them eat. I would say just keep looking in on her and make her she looks like a healthy weight. Good luck and enjoy! They're the best and so low maintenance!

Hey! I'm planning on ordering a 4x2x2 for my next beardie but I'm worried about lighting. I have a UVA and a UVB but they are small (the UVA just being a bulb and the UVB being 12 ish inches?) My house is drafty so I need a strong light that puts off quite a good amount of heat, any suggestions?
cookie event at my library today, quite fun! Made some bracelets for my comrades too, to give them at church in the morning. Got a busy day tomorrow even though I’m off work… i go back on tuesday so atleast I’ll have 2 days off to rewind….then back to hell lol
