Here's a tip: make a large batch of crested gecko food and sort it into individual cups and freeze them. You can even put dabs of food on parchment paper, then freeze it and bag the individual servings. It thaws in 20 min and keeps for several months. Saves me so much time.

[@WickensWickedReptiles]

this is such a good idea

[@MathGameOne1]

Has this worked? Pangea does not recommend freezing it , however you can prepare enough for a week put it in a sauce bottle and put it in the fridge its much easier than preparing it daily

[@roastchicken2114]

@@MathGameOne1 I've done it for years with no ill effects. I only freeze a months worth at a time so perhaps that's why? I can't see why you couldn't freeze it once mixed. You can freeze nearly any human food with no ill effects.

Just now seeing this; hope it’s not to late and I hope ur crested Havnt suffered from malnourishment from not eating due to the low temps at night. 75 is average during the day; ab 70-72 is ele here u want to be; but I believe 55/60 is wayyy to low during the night in New Caledonian the nights r real short; the sun comes up ab 5-6am; so it typically doesn’t get lower then 60

[@cherrybomb3033]

My daughter got a Leo for her bday which inspired me to get a crestie for my B-Day. We did extensive research on both before getting them. I chose a crestie because it's care fit my lifestyle and routines. I did not want to deal with a mass amount of insects and with cresties they eat insects only twice a week, the other days they eat Rapashy or Pangea powder food. I love my crestie so much! He still has his tail which I'm shocked about because we've been having loud thunderstorms all summer, plus the 4th of July fireworks and the 24th of July fireworks (I live in Utah and we celebrate the 24th with fireworks because it's the days the pioneers founded Utah). I have nightmares that my crestie dropped its tail because I'm so paranoid about it. I hope he keeps his tail, but I do realize that he could drop it at any point in his life. Fun fact: Cresties with dropped tails are called Frog Butt 🐸🍑😂

[@dinosaurs818]

I just got my first crestie, I love him so much and I keep him in a 10 gallon cause he’s tiny and has minor toe deformities(he can’t stick to anything) I have a 30 gallon tall tank for him when he gets a bit bigger

I’m watching the hog nose snake video, I’ve seen a couple different channels opinions as well as a nature conservation site opinion; I’m studying for a biology degree, we bought a sulcata tortoise who has a 40 ft by 20 ft fenced in yard when he grows big, I love the info your channel provides!!

Great video! My crestie is by far one of my fave reptiles.

[@WickensWickedReptiles]

Good choice!

I am going today to pick up my first crested gecko. I set up a live virbarium a couple months ago so the roots could set up

My boyfriend and I have been dying to dive into the world of reptiles, and we are pretty much decided on getting a crestie after watching this and a few other videos
