This is Liza my juvenile crested gecko, Ive had her for about two months now. Past week shes looked really deflated in the mornings. She eats pangea with insects and sometimes horn worms or crickets. Her humidity is around low 60's by morning time and I do another mist then let it dry out during the day and mist more at night. Is she just dehydrated by morning but then why wasnt it happening before. Around 8-9 am her temp is around 70.

Ive had her for a few days and I suspect shes not been eating. Ive never seen her near the dish and the base of her tail is starting to look sunken in. The breeder only fed her crickets so Im gonna buy those for now. However I know that just crickets would be a terrible diet for her. How to I get her to recognize the liquid gecko diet

I just brought her home. She came out of the container fine onto my hands and I put my hand in the enclosure. She jumped off onto the glass and promptly fell off and tried to grip the spider wood and slipped off that too. She looks dehydrated to me so the enclosure got a mist. She should definitely be gripping things better. Is it just dehydration or a more serious issue that warrants moving up the initial vet appointment. Enclosure is a little empty cuz the plants died off but should bounce back in a day.

This is Mongo he's very new I just got him 5 days ago. It took him two days to come out of the bag he came in and now he's been under the same hide for 3 more days. He hasn't eaten or drank anything. Ive been placing different foods right in from of the hide. How long is too long for him to not come out. I definitely don't want to force him but I also don't want him to get sick. If you have any advice to make him feel more safe or to get him to eat by it would be much appreciated

Im not a huge fan of the set up so far and I will be changing it. Is there anything husbandry wrong with it I should change before the skink arrives or and suggestions? There is a mesh lid for the enclosure and a heat lamp + uvb that will be placed on the side with the stones. I thinking it needs more substrate. Its a 75 gallon long, the skink is a juvenile.

I have a blue tongue skink coming in a few days and Im wondering if any of y'all have enrichment ideas. Its name will be Mongo and he's super small. His set up rn is a 75 gallon with coco and repti bark with 3 hides and fake plants +food and water dish. I bought 3 bricks of the coco fiber and a big bag of the bark. I'll probably end up needing more. If you have any set up suggestions as well, Im open!

Im looking for an exotic per sitter! I'll be moving and have 2 weeks before my apartment lease starts so I'll need a place for them to stay. (Moving from a house with a group to an apartment) It would be from July 31st til August 16th. It's a blue tongue skink and a crested gecko. They both just need to be fed and I'll provide everything. The skinks enclosed is 4ft by 18 inches and the gecko enclosure can go on top.

The glue holding the wire down failed and he got out. But he didn't leave. He walked around. Peed and pooped and then came back and went to bed in his cage. At least we know he likes his set up. 😭

Im looking for a sitter/board for my 4 corn snakes. It would be from July 30th til August 15th. All the sitter would need to do is keep their water bowls clean and do two feeding. They eat frozen thawed with no issue and I would provide the food in resealable bags. Their tanks take up about 8sqft and stack on top of each other. Im open to negotiating pay. Let me know if anyones interested!

My guy mouse cheese needs friends. I saw these super cute females. He would need to get neutered and it's something Ive been debating for a while. I don't know if it's as risky as it used to be I just really don't want to lose him. I obviously don't fully know whats going on in his head but he seems pretty happy.

This is rootbeer, when he was a baby he used to slam his food now he eats probably once a month. He doesnt lose weight in any significant way when it does drop it goes back up with his next meal. He's just not very active and prefers to watch than to explore. He's very shy and kind of on the smaller side. He likes the slow life I guess. I still think hes the cutest of the bunch with his brown eyes. (even more than sansa the hatchling almost yearling)

Ill finish cleaning his cage and put him in, with in 3 days you wouldn't be able to tell there were any hides or clutter in his bin. He fully buries everything. I guess if it's fun for him, I just want to make sure it's not a stress thing. Speaking of stress the second I put him in his carrier he's chewing at the bar desperately trying to escape. Im glad someone who doesnt know didn't buy him. He would be losing his mind in a bar cage. He gets antsy if he doesnt get a new toy once a week. I also found a nest while taking out the old bedding, I was careful to preserve it and put it back in. First pic is the nest.

Shes been hanging out up here a lot recently. At least the fake plants stay alive.

Dang her glass is clean it doesnt look like theres a panel behind her!
