Baby Crestie

Finally got a baby Crestie and it’s a Lilly White :heart_eyes:

It’s so tiny, I’m scared it’s going to escape through the air holes :smirk:

That’s awesome! I’m super excited for you! I was paranoid about the air holes too and covered them with screen, lol. The baby is super cute! Hopefully you’ll have another baby soon. :crossed_fingers:

Thanks, the last pic is how I found the lil one snuggled up to its clutch mate egg.

I am so excited :grin: I can’t wait for it to shed.

I think I put too much in the enclosure and I’m going to struggle to find it tomorrow :sweat_smile:

A lot of the time my cresties are hidden and I can’t see them. I don’t have quite that much in the enclosure (bamboo, fake plant, and egg carton pieces) and they often opt for hides I have on the ground.

I put some food & small water bowl in, out of habit lol

It’s hidden under a fake leaf ATM, which is close to where I put it. I expect is warn out but I’m sure it will move about more in no time.

It reacted to my youngest son being noisy & crazy (crazy few hours before he crashes to bed) :sweat_smile: without freaking out too much so I’m feeling good :grin: and was happy to be held and still curious all at once

I expected it to be jumpy, esp with a noisy child about :sweat_smile: but was quite happy in my hand

Isn’t it crazy how TEENY they are?! I keep them in a critter keeper for a few weeks until they’re big enough to not be able to potentially squish themselves through the air holes. I’m sure they’d be fine, but I’m paranoid. :upside_down_face:

So stinking cute though! I’m so glad you finally got one! :purple_heart:

I weighed up the options, but can clearly see the Cresties head & body can’t get through so thought I’d pop it straight in. I’ve got 2 small exo terras should I worry, but they are bio-active.

I just can’t believe how tiny :smiling_face_with_three_hearts: it looks incredible lost in the enclosure :sweat_smile:

I just want to get it out and hold it, but I’m going to leave it to rest for a few days.

Clutch mate hasn’t hatched yet :egg: hopefully won’t be long :crossed_fingers:

Congrats! Are you planning to put them in the same enclosure or different enclosures?

Currently they are separate but I’m thinking of putting them together once I know they are both eating. I can’t decide.

Storage I know if they are eating but together gives then early socialising

I’ve been keeping mine seperate just to give them more space, but I’m running out of room, lol. That baby is super cute!

I had originally thought that but the babies look far too tiny to be in there by themselves :sweat_smile:

I keep each clutch together :black_heart:
Always have done, usually until they go to new homes too unless boys who mature quick!
