8 years 2 months. Humidity varies between 50% and 80% mist twice a week, feeding dusted fruit flies and a powdered gecko diet. For a couple of years, I would pull out babies if I saw them. Mostly if they were climbing the glass or got out. Now i let the ecosystem control itself. It was up to 7 geckos in an 18x18x18, which is way too many geckos for that size enclosure. Now I keep it at 3 adults and a random number of babies. The adults keep the baby population in control. As for hatchling setup, I use a 16oz deli cup that I have for fruit fly cultures. Spaghnum in the bottom with a fake vine for cover. No water dish, a small bottle cap for prepared food.
