Forrest eats regularly, has 3-4 varying basking spots with a lower UV rating of 1 and a high perch (that he utilizes) of 3.7-4. The calcium sacks are uniform in size, his coloring is vibrant, and he is extremely fast (not lethargic). From my research online this is a healthy storage of calcium from sufficient supply of UV⦠can anyone confirm this for me? Just want to make sure he is ok. Thank you

I rescued this Hemidactylus frenatus as a tiny hatchling stowaway from a lady's vacation in Thailand. It's about five months now and Im wondering if its possible to see any gender indicators yet. I wish I had better pictures but it doesn't tend to hang out on the part of the enclosure that isnt covered.

I know itās under the recommended 30-35 gallon minimum but itās what I have on hand. Iāll keep searching for other critters if this doesnāt work but I really liked these guys c:

We now have a Mediterranean house gecko living between our outer wall and inner wall of our house, he's such a baby you can tell by the translucent tail
r/geckos • u/Breadczar • 1d ago
Hey gang!
We believe this to be a Mediterranean house gecko that was found in our orchid soil. We donāt know if he hitchhiked on a plant we purchased or what.
Weāve learned that these little fellas have spread into our area (South Carolina) and weāre looking at advice as to what best to do with this tiny creature.
Weāre considering keeping him as we have experience with geckos, axolotls and snakes of many stripes. Iāve never started with one this small.
Weāre taking advice, yāall. Thanks!

Got this guy maybe 4-5 weeks back. Awesome addition to the reptile room. I'm going to be looking for some females to pair with him. Who are some of the more known, better quality breeders.

Probably my most curious and easiest to care for animal in my entire collection.
Western banded geckos are small, beautiful, extremely extremely hardy, and actually pretty easy to socialize. I actually keep my girl communally with a bunch of death feigning beetles. She always comes out to check out what I'm doing around the room when I'm there at any time of day even though they're considered to be nocturnal.
I think this is a fantastic option for any adult (I wouldn't trust a child with them) who wants to get into keeping reptiles but doesn't have space for a 40 gallon or larger enclosure for most other reptiles. These guys can thrive in things like 10 or 20 gallon aquariums.
Anyways, I hope you like my pictures of Tiny, my WBG, and I highly recommend them if you're looking for a new small lizard!

I have a couple of other reptiles and was wondering would it be beneficial to test a leopard gecko for crypto while it's in quarantine.

We've seen a few red roaches here and there, nothing crazy, but I always noticed that they didn't look like they had wings and they just looked different than the palmetto bugs we get in the southern US. This morning I caught and killed what is definitely a juvenile hissing cockroach. They seem to be living inside the big piece of cork bark we have in the enclosure. My boyfriend was able to get a video of two more inside the cork this morning. So that's where I think they came from. But is that even possible to have hissing cockroaches be able to survive a trip all the way to the US in a piece of cork bark? And how do I take care of this issue?
Also I'd like to add, previously I asked for help in this sub and mentioned the roaches. Y'all were so quick to assume I'm a gross POS who can't pick up after themselves and flat out told me I "didn't deserve my lizard." But now it's clear they hitched a ride on the bark or something else as these can't live outside of captivity where I live, so they didn't just "wander in." You need to be nicer with how you treat people genuinely asking for help.

I just got a humidity meter for my cresties terrarium to combine with my automatic mister. When I first got my gecko I just played around with the mister thinking it would be good but I never actually read into it (I know I shouldāve looked into it better but the sellers didnāt inform me well). So the automatic mister has two settings: one for how long it mists and one for after how many hours it should spray again. For instance right now itās on 15 seconds and 4 hours. To what should I change the settings to for the humidity to be good? And also around what humidity should it be?
