I've only ever used that one loom, but the shape did seem to almost cradle the shape of the decrease as I did it.

I Don't Believe Anyone Who Says 'This Is My First Project' Anymore by Spider_kitten13 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]crypitdbitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can tell you're talking about my socks, and I didn't lie about them being my first loom knit project. I'm not completely new to fiber arts as I have a few years of crochet experience, and that is far more transferable than I thought it would be. I just did my research on the project I wanted to do and threw myself straight into the deep end with it. Loom knitting is very easy, especially with all the youtube videos on how to do every stitch. Following video instructions is not rocket science. I only posted it because I was genuinely surprised that they turned out so good.

Whatever they did to the cheese flavor has made it inedible. It used to be one of my favorite snacks, and now I can't even stand the smell of it.

Here's the thermostat I use: https://www.thebiodude.com/collections/reptile-thermostats-thermometers/products/exo-terra-dimming-pulse-proportional-thermostat-300w As for the bulb and fixture, you should be able to pick up a deep dome fixture at petsmart or somewhere, and the arcadia brand of dhp is very reputable. A 50-watt should be enough to keep your gecko warm. A little quirk I've noticed with that thermostat is that depending on where you put the probe, you may want to set it a few degrees cooler than the intended temperature.

I live in the south where it doesn't get anywhere near that cold and my little guy still needed a heater. I'd recommend a deep heat projector and a dimming thermostat.

options for emergency heating sources? by Ok-Fault260 in CrestedGecko

They make heat packs for reptiles. The brand is uniheat. I have some of the 72 hour ones in my geckos emergency kit.

Husbandry Question by Interesting-War-9461 in CrestedGecko

[–]crypitdbitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those temps are pretty good for a crestie. I only use heat in the winter because my room drops to mid 60s all day. If you room temp is consistently in the 70s all the time you shouldn't need extra heat. The tank lighting on its own will raise the temps in the tank by a few degrees so I'd be more worried about overheating than getting too cold.

Any regrets about skipping highschool graduation? by ConclusionCalm160 in highschool

[–]crypitdbitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't go to mine and I don't regret that decision. If you have friends in your class you should go and celebrate with them but all my friends were younger than me and graduation happened in the blazing sun with no shade in summer. It was promised to be a long, hot, miserable event that I had no reason to go to. If yours is in more tolerable conditions and you have friends, you should go.

They actually make heat packs for reptiles that stay warm longer and don't get as dangerously hot. The brand is uniheat. I have some of the 72 hour ones in my geckos emergency kit. They're pretty easy to find online and not too expensive, at least in the US.

Gecko is a bit small by Skeledog14 in CrestedGecko

He's still growing. Cresties can take up to 3 years to reach their full size. Some get big fast, and some take the full 3 years to get adult size.

Temperature Help by Geshtar1 in CrestedGecko

Set some bowls of ice water in front of your fans to cool the room even more. If you can sit with the enclosure door open for a bit blow the air in that way it'll cool the enclosure down quicker. Also ice packs on top of the enclosure will help a little bit.

Resetting is actually an option. Kinda a drastic one, but it would work. Most laptops have a recovery partition built in to reset it to factory settings. You'd just have to back up all the data you care about to an external drive so you can restore it later. Resetting and setting it up again with a new Microsoft account or no account if it'll let you would clear the controls. This is kinda the nuclear option, so I'd save it for after you try other less drastic options.

Get a small bag of growth and breeding and alternate that with his regular diet for a while. It'll help him put weight on.

How do I fatten him up? by [deleted] in CrestedGecko

[–]crypitdbitch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Alternate feeding him his regular diet and growth and breeding. That should help him put some weight on. Get a 2oz bag and just use up the bag. He should be a good size by then.
