One of the most appealing things about crested geckos is that they can be fed a meal powder called crested gecko diet, or CGD for short.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"9ab6\" class=\"hl hm fv hn b ho if hp hq hr ig hs ht hu ih hv hw hx ii hy hz ia ij ib ic ie dn gs\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"\u003eThese geckos don’t need much space as babies and will do much better in a small enclosure, as they can have troubles finding their food in a tank too big.

In reality, crested geckos need high humidity but they also need to be able to dry out. If a gecko can’t get dry, it will likely develop a bacterial infection, which can be difficult and expensive to treat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"07cb\" class=\"hl hm fv hn b ho if hp hq hr ig hs ht hu ih hv hw hx ii hy hz ia ij ib ic ie dn gs\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"\u003eThe other misconception is that crested geckos only need to eat CGD for their entire lives. While some have success with this model of feeding, it’s a much better idea to supplement your gecko’s diet with some type of feeder insect. You can also occasionally dust these insects in calcium powder to maintain bone health in your new pet. Crested geckos may be known as fruit-eating geckos, but once you see the look on their face when presented with a juicy worm.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AlternativePetShop.com","offers":[{"title":"Captive Bred - Baby","offer_id":53866964549743,"sku":null,"price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0017\/8035\/1087\/products\/Crested-Gecko-1.jpg?v=1569320487"},{"product_id":"leopard-gecko-1","title":"Leopard Gecko","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"pro-titlebox\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pro-sku-sub\"\u003eEublepharis macularius\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"woocommerce-product-details__short-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMIXED MORPH \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp id=\"145b\" class=\"hl hm fv hn b ho if hp hq hr ig hs ht hu ih hv hw hx ii hy hz ia ij ib ic ie dn gs\" data-selectable-paragraph=\"\"\u003eThese cute little creatures are the darlings of the lizard world, with their smiling faces and big, bright eyes.

You can easily keep a leopard gecko in a 20-gallon long tank for the entirety of its life. They will need two hides; one on the cool side of their tank, and one on the warm side. Also include a humid hide in the middle or on the cool side to help them get pesky skin off when they are shedding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-selectable-paragraph=\"\" class=\"hl hm fv hn b ho if hp hq hr ig hs ht hu ih hv hw hx ii hy hz ia ij ib ic ie dn gs\" id=\"a3a8\"\u003eOne of the biggest beginner misconceptions about leopard geckos is that they need a heat lamp to thrive.
