Who asked if there was a difference?

"Who asked if there was a difference?
Maybe I missed where that was posted."

Just to clarify, I did not see a bowl large or high enough to make sure the crickets did not jump out of the container so "there is the difference" is my own statement to simply express that you don't need a high container with the roaches as they will not jump out hence again "the difference" between keeping larger bowls so the food does not jump into the substrate to risk impaction. Looks like you have some good color morphs going. Let me know if you have any breeding questions or are looking for any more cresteds. It's always a good idea to breed similar colors, but once in a while wonderful things happen when you diversify.

Today was a blast lol. I was at a shop picking up some cages and decided to check out their geckos. They had some awesome juvies but they were a bit steep in price. I saw one male in there and decided just to look him over. They opened the setup and I took him out and he jumped all over and was pretty lively. Then out of nowhere decided to bite my finger! He even drew blood! Hyper active little goober {D

I can't wait! In a few more hours I have boxes coming from fedex, usps and ups with new friends :)

Well I can see your doing your part to stimulate the economy using 3 different carriers. But you forgot poor DHL.


So now that you have all these little guys breeding, you can sell me some for el cheapo right?

He even drew blood {D I have had babie, juvies, and adults bite me and have never came close to it hurting or "drawing blood". Congradulations you found the first vampire crested gecko. That is awesome and hilarious pick that one up for sure they are a keeper:clap:

i should mention about your setups normally when a egg box is used is when there is newspaper instead of moist substrate having an option they might lay outside of the box so keep an eye for eggs.:)

There is a decent 2-3" layer of bark chips on top of the peat moss in the setup so I gave boxes because I was not sure they would dig under the chips to lay eggs. All three adults females so far have been in their boxes so I will just have to keep an eye out. It would be cool to have eggs just hatch in the tank without me knowing they were even laid {D

This one is very very nice! Wow
I agree! That is my harly pinner male for the lady I have coming tomorrow. They will need about 6-8 more months to grow up because they are only about 12grams but its still awesome to have the pair.
