Crestie Crash Course

Welcome to the Crestie Crash Course! I'll be walking you through everything you need to provide your new buddy with to make sure they live a long and happy life. This includes what their enclosure should be like, their food and water requirements, and how to properly wrangle your gecko. This guide was made specifically with single crested geckos in mind, and we always recommend only housing 1 adult per enclosure. A lot of this information can be applied to other species of New Caledonian gecko (Chahoua, Leachianus, Eurydactylodes, and Gargoyle) but please do some more research as those species' care does vary, especially when it comes to enclosure size.
