Show Off Your Cresties 🤩

I can imagine.

We helped 2 ball pythons when hatching. Both made it out of the egg, but one died a few weeks later, it’s so intense!

Got some of newbies shed off. And misted lots again, poor thing probably hates me with all the misting!… But Not much more! :smile:
Tonight she gets cgd, crickets and wax worms :sweat_smile:
We shall see what takes her fancy! :hushed:

Oooo, hopefully she won’t be fussy :crossed_fingers:

Gingerbread Latte has lost 2 grams and tummy isn’t as plump anymore (she got some rolls)… But I can’t find any eggs! She seems fine in herself.

Either she is unbelievably great at hiding eggs, simply fat, or she’s secretly still hiding them! Either way I’m stumped :woman_shrugging:

Here’s one I booked some months ago, now ready to move from the breeder. 4,6 grams. Great lineage on this one too, father from Crimson Cresties (I adore their geckos). Another red harli :heart_eyes:, breeder said possibly tricolor.
I think the red and the cream goes so well together.

So small :smiling_face_with_tear: How old now? :blush:

Unsure on the red, defo wait til older to determine, assuming parents were reds though?
But yes to Triclour, my fav :smiling_face_with_tear:

Here’s hoping!
She’s already had some cgd, I always show them when they first get here and watch them eat a bit and seems to like the mix I do thankfully :face_exhaling:

Or she’s just dropped a bit of weight, she may be on a diet… :joy:

Have you got plants on the bottom?…

Yeah, they are red tricolours. I know this might turn dark brown with age, but for now I’m going to enjoy the reddish-ness :smile:
Born in november.

Touch wood then!
Yeah the perks of reds… though some stay lush!

Ooooh bless, little bit of a slow grower then, get that boy/girl on some crickets :cricket:
And I mean the wax worm treat never hurt anyone… my lot had them tonight :sweat_smile:
They’ll all have Tubby bellies tomorrow :laughing:

Very cute tricolour. Hopefully it stays red for you :crossed_fingers:

Yes she has 2 plants at the bottom but I pulled them up (carefully) to check and no eggs.

She hasn’t eat insects for a few months now, but this is usual for her this time of year and she’s eating CDG, a little more than usual. I thought I felt eggs in her tummy & shed verb digging recently, she weighs 54g, maybe she needed a big … :poop: :sweat_smile:

I think she’s just a chunky lady!

First time I haven’t had to move Milkyway from sleeping in a weird position :partying_face:


I rearranged his enclosure using pipe insulation, I think he approves :raised_hands:

He is such a gorgeous gecko!

Oh my… milkyway is so prettyšŸ˜.

I just found solid pool noodles from a friend on amazon, and i am STOKED for them to arrive.

Thanks, he’s certainly one of my favourites, although I don’t know if he did his job with the ladies! I hope for a mini Milkyway but soft scalešŸ¤ž

He just likes to sleep in silly positions :woman_shrugging:

Good luck with the pool noodles. I’ve only ever seen ones that bend, hence why I went for pipe insulation :grin: I originally bought them in lock down as I couldn’t get hold of anything else, but they are amazing!

I have them in the breeding enclosure, plus with some other Cresties and I plan to use them in the baby enclosures, when I eventually get round to doing them, no eggs yet…so no rush :crossed_fingers:

Wait… what do you mean ā€œones that bendā€? Like, not very ā€œstiffā€? I dont want tonput somrthing in any enclosures that may fall and cause harm to my littke dudes and dudettes. :grimacing:

Wow, can you even imagine!?

I think they are made in a similar way, but my kids use noodles for swimming and they bend more easily than pipe insulation plus I found pipe insulation is cheaper (in UK anyway) and is available in different thickness

I gotcha… makes sense. Im gonna try it out and will see how it goes. With these being soild thru the middle, i imagine they’ll be less ā€œbendyā€ but i suppose we will see!

Hopefully they will work for you. I find the pipe insulation easy to cut to size, hopefully you will be able to do so with yours too.
