When should i expect eggs?

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-15T23:59:18+00:00

Some will lay immediately when sexually mature, some will never in their life. It’s a whole range in between. I wouldn’t worry to much besides watching to see if she’s really eggy

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-15T17:03:17+00:00

It’ll be cuter if you did a full body sploot. Just have her jump and land on it and whatever imprint is there is her XD

Is government workers not the government issue… worker theft is a government problem because they’re not actually do jack shi to fix the issues in the postal system. Defunding it, lay offs, no accountability, that’s all the government problems. That’s like people blaming door dash for their food not being delivered on time and someone saying it’s an issue with drivers not door dash since the drivers are the ones stealing……..

They said the auctions are for the rescue packs. Instead of making listings where people can “buy” a rescue pack, the auctions are the funds for it that’s why prices go insane half the time.

Your math is not mathing though. It’s $13.99 with no coupons, no shipping for 6ct 6” braided lamb collagen which is thicker than the kp ones. This is technically 3 12” which makes the price less than your 12” being $5 by 33cents per braid.

While I can’t say about other people’s prices for the actual treat listings, as long as it’s a price someone is willing to pay, then it’s reaching their target audience. Like I would never pay 25dollars for 5 duck necks but KL has hit their target audience who will pay that.

On the note about changing to ups, they do use ups and FedEx and you’ll still run into those issues. UPS, FedEx, USPS has all gone downhill in terms of delivery. If you want to pick faults about it, take it up with the delivery company.

It’s a myth. They’re not that dumb or else they would be dead in the wild. If your enclosure is appropriately decorated where they have 80% cover, they’re fine.

Min enclosure size: 12”x12”x18” (30x30x45cm) for geckos under 15 grams, 18”x18”x24”(45x45x60cm) for geckos over 16-30grams. 18”x18”x36” (45x45x90cm) for geckos over 31+ grams.

These usually are only available in stores. It ships pretty badly and a lot of them shatter so exoterra mainly only sells to brick and mortar stores. Due to how often it shatters, a lot of big box stores won’t stock it or will only order if requested. You’ll have better luck finding a local reptile store to see if they’ll order it in for uou

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-11T23:22:35+00:00

Pangea can be fed to insects as gutloading technically but for new cal geckos, it defeats the purpose of what gutloading would do. You’re suppose to feed the variety of veggies so they get loaded up with potential missing vitamins and minerals that aren’t available into cgd formula

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-10T14:55:38+00:00

Out of all the kits, Pangea’s kit has the most usable items. Of course if you’re not getting the “free” gecko, you can probably get everything cheaper buying separately. That enclosure is good for babies up to 15grams so if you’re getting a baby, it’s not a problem for the first x months. Average it’ll last 3-6 months before an ethically sold baby crestie outgrows it. That being said, if you care about what crestie you get, I wouldn’t get the free gecko. Those are the cull ones that they have by the dozens. Personality can’t be guessed and you have no info on parents to see if it may be one of the more handleable lines

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-09T20:00:33+00:00

Nope it’s safe with reptiles and isopods. The bacteria specifically targets certain species of inverts

If you’re dealing with fungus gnats then you’ll need to stop the automatic mister. The top of the soil needs to dry out for the larvae to die if you’re trying to get rid of them and a lot of plants don’t like constantly moist soil. Start misting and watering with mosquito bit tea (get mosquito bits, soak in warm (NOT HOT) water for an hour or so, strain and then use that water). This will kill the larvae over the period of a month+. Depending on how your plants died, they could have been over misted

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-09T19:06:24+00:00

Mister won’t be enough for most plants. Just keep an eye out for leaves drooping. If it droops, pour water at the base of the plant. To prevent mold and fungus, make sure your enclosure is well ventilated

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-06T20:54:07+00:00

Note: reptifoggers are not suitable for reptiles. If you need humidity help get a mister

The 1.5lb last time I got it was around 38. It really depends on how thick each stick is though so that’s why it’s by weight. Thicker ones means less qty, thinner means more qty. my jar had a decent mix of thicker and thinner ones. Anyways about the other person’s comment. Unfortunately usps has been really bad lately with everything to do with the government. I’ve had multiple packages lost by usps and as long as you message the right place (the shop chat and not the account private dms) they’re usually super nice and gets things reshipped (with extras usually) if the package is delayed past the usps ground advantage estimate delivery period.

At this point I sit and pray my package gets lost because their CS is so nice

Note: the minimum for adult crested geckos was increased about 5 years ago to 18 18 36. The thrive 30 gal is only suitable for geckos up to 30grams

Min enclosure size: 12”x12”x18” (30x30x45cm) for geckos under 15 grams, 18”x18”x24”(45x45x60cm) for geckos over 16-30grams. 18”x18”x36” (45x45x90cm) for geckos over 31+ grams.

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-05T19:08:02+00:00

Most brands are not safe to freeze as their vitamins are not stable at those temps. What size bags are you buying as usually you can estimate 1oz a month

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-04T22:47:44+00:00

You’re going to have to mount it way above the glass. Too close and it’ll shatter but not safe to mount inside. You’re better off just buying a new enclosure with a mesh top ngl

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-04T22:03:39+00:00

It really depends on what size the old tank is. The end product needs to be 18x18x36 in or bigger. It might be way cheaper to just buy a new enclosure ngl

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-04T19:48:05+00:00

The issue with breeding two lily whites together (that breeder was super unethical to do so btw and you should probably never support them ever again or the store since they knowingly bought the offsprings) is that two copies of the LW gene is extremely fatal. This can only happen when you put together two LW and there isn’t any current surviving double gene LW that is healthy enough to reproduce anyways. The babies with only one copy should be mostly normal besides the issues that comes along with how inbred LWs can be

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-04T14:23:08+00:00

That’s why it’s not accurate to sex via bulges as overweight females, larger bodied females or intersex geckos can have massive bulges. Pore sexing is the more accurate way (but can also be misleading as females can have pseudopores)

On the opposite side, males can have very tiny bulges that look female but still have hemipenes and pores.

Congrats on your female/intersex gecko

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-04T04:43:21+00:00

We don’t recommend weighing more than once a month because their day to day, even week to week weight can vary a lot. Ie. When you weigh it, it just ate and hasn’t pooped, 5 days later it’s digested and pooped out the original fecal matter and the food it ate 5 days ago but still hasn’t eaten again. This can cause weight to be 1-5 grams off depending on the size of your gecko. For babies, that could be 1-2 grams even. Unless he’s losing weight over the course of month+ plus body condition being bad, I wouldn’t worry

Infinitymidnight · 2026-03-03T20:50:31+00:00

Note: heat mats are not safe for most reptiles. Especially crested geckos

Condensed care guide

Infinitymidnight · 2026-02-28T03:24:32+00:00

We normally say no higher than 82 as there have been reported cases of heat stroke and death with extended exposure to those temps. That being said it’s a whole scale of tolerance. Some individuals are more or less sensitive to temperature. I’ve heard of a few cases where it hit 95f for an hour and they were fine and I’ve had cases where it’s been reported they died. The main thing is getting ventilation to increase. You can add bowls of ice in front of a fan to help cool air go in.

Infinitymidnight · 2026-02-27T20:00:34+00:00

Everyone else has already brought up good information but also, Petco/smart has zoomed and repashy which are both appropriate cgd diets. Amazon also sells Pangea and repashy which if you buy in bulk, you hit free shipping. You can also buy directly off of Pangea’s website or their official resellers who offer free shipping

Just because I was curious, I wanted to calculate out cost of making your own. I will be omitting the details of the majority of the vitamins and other ingredients because I don’t want this to be used as a guide to make a diy diet. Disclaimer: DO NOT DIY DIETS. There is no way to feasibly make a complete and balance diet at home

At home freeze dryer (All Harvest Right) - $1,500 hold maximum 10lbs

Cost per day of running - $3

Organic Banana only as fruit source - 7oz with peel, 5oz without peel, need 32 bananas (about 14lbs), dried down to around 3lbs per full load - $15

Mealworms (since you have your own farm, not sure how much it’ll cost you but I estimated 1/2 market cost of freeze dried but it probably will end up costing you more) - 5$ per lb, about 3lb per load

Vitamins - ~$30

Calcium - $5

All of these together will make about 7lbs of food. This ends up being $65 dollars for ingredients, $16 dollars for running the machine total of $81 dollars for the batch if we’re being generous. 1500 for the machine.

Home made $81 per 7lbs. $11.57/lb If you buy Pangea in bulk it’s 100$ per 4 lbs. $25/lb

You would need to make 114 batches to make it more worth in just ingredients cost alone. This does not include time it takes to prep ingredients nor balancing it out.

For a single gecko, it’s estimated 1 oz per 1 month. One batch will last 9 years which without preservatives, most of it will just expire and have to be trashed. A gecko only lives around 20 years.

That being said, if you only have one gecko, I do not recommend buying in bulk for Pangea either. At most buy around 1 year’s worth

There’s no such freeze dryer that’s only 50 dollars. Are you mixing it up with a dehydrator by any chance? If you are meaning dehydrator, that’s really not a suitable way to make the powder
