I believe that reposting, and the posting of new pictures of already posted cresties is allowed and even encouraged on this thread!

He was actually our very first one. About 2 years old. Before I knew how many good breeders were out there he was a Chain store purchase. Super underaged and underweight. But veryā€¦. Whatā€™s a nice way to say it. Energetic lol

Reposting is definitely showed here :relaxed: and probably wonā€™t be noticed as we have so many pictures put on here :joy:

Very nice geckos :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

Anyone got any gecko purchase plans for next year?

For next year I might set up some enclosures and possibly buy a new crestie or two. Most of my effort will be towards day geckos or dart frogs and leopard geckos (tangerine and high-gene females).

Iā€™ll have to see if I can actually see him doing it and get a picture, but I remember one night, I heard a lot of sounds that sounded like he was crawling on the screen top of his enclosure :rofl: I donā€™t think thatā€™s where youā€™re supposed to climb lol

You know thatā€™s a good question. Iā€™m no expert at gecko sexing. But Iā€™m pretty sure itā€™s a male

Balls are a BIG give away for males :rofl:

Iā€™m afraid youā€™ve unraveled my whole gecko world. Like straight up I just always assumed that slight bulge was it. According to my wifeā€™s Facebook ā€œexpertā€ group, Iā€™m an idiot and have named my little girl Merlin. :sweat_smile:

Haha Iā€™m sorry!
But I saw no massive bulge there and was likeā€¦ ā€œhe?ā€ :sweat_smile:
She can still be a merlin! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I agree but adulthood and usually a lot sooner there is a distinct bulge if itā€™s male.

I assumed my very first Crestie was male, until she laid eggs :sweat_smile: she was per only as super small so didnā€™t matter. But Iā€™d say Merlin is an awesome name regardless of sex! Your not an idiot, a lot of people make that mistake.

Iā€™ll see if I can get some pics of males showing their bulge so you have an idea just how easy it is to tell! Shouldnā€™t be hard as the males seem to love showing off their bits šŸ¤¦

Oooooooo I love day geckos. Definitely update if you get them :crossed_fingers:They were the original gecko species that made me want geckos, I donā€™t have any though as the regular feeding off insects put me off.

I technically have lots of purchase plans, but I am limited on space so hubby has banned me from more pets for a while, esp as Iā€™m going to be breeding Cresties next year.

Babies will take my main focus so Iā€™m hoping it will distract me from the lack of purchasing :sob:

But if I could buy, Iā€™d like a gargoyle gecko and maybe a few Cresties :grin:

@arice88 it happens to the best of us! :joy: I think Merlin is still an awesome name!

@garciademueller Kain does that a lot, especially since heā€™s no longer with the girls. Freaks me out every time.

As for purchasing, we are in the market for another male crestie. Maybe a pair. I would also like to add an AFT, another Leo, BP, and possibly a gargoyle. Matt has been making google eyes at some of the leaf-tailed geckos at the shop, so that may be a thing too.

Iā€™m trying not to buy anymore Cresties now :joy:
I have a lot and with wanting to hold back need to be good!
Female gargoyles thoughā€¦ Yesā€¦ :joy:
And next year possibly a couple more fatties, depending on what hatches (if I get eggs).

Iā€™m also trying not to buy reptiles at the moment. Getting pretty tough though. My fingerā€™s inching closer to the inquire to buy button on this boa every day. lol
