Crested gecko Heating and Lighting:

One of the nice things about crested geckos is they do not really require any UVB lighting.  It is totally optional and may just be for viewing purposes only.  Crested Geckos do not really require low levels of UVB lighting for 10-12 hours of the day but some breeders still use it.

This is totally optional as most crested gecko breeders and keepers do not provide lighting.  Keep in mind, this should be between 3-5% UVB, and types of recommended UVB lamps or bulbs would be an Arcadia 5% range bulb or the Reptisun 5.0 lamp.  Heat lamps are not really required unless your house or area you have your habitat in is not at room temp.  Crested geckos prefer 72-75 degrees.  If your home is too cold, or too hot, you may need to supplement the heat or cold with a heat mat, heat lamp, or air conditioner.  Cresties cannot be housed above 80 degrees. This goes for all cresties, not just white crested gecko morphs.

Lily White Crested Gecko for sale – Temperature:

Lilly White Crested geckos will survive being kept at room temperature in captivity (72) however the best temps for health is 74 degrees. The optimum temperature range is between 68-77 degrees F, we prefer to keep ours at around 73-74F. Too much heat is not good for cresties!  It is important to note that if the high temperature eclipses 80 degrees, crested geckos do not fare well.  Long term exposure to temperatures that exceed 80 degrees will end up causing the crestie to eventually die.  For this reason, consider it being too hot, as important or critical to it being too cold.  Most keepers that are new to crested geckos do not realize this!

Crested Geckos Habitat Maintenance:

Every day, you should allow yourself 5 minutes to clean your maintain your crested gecko habitat.  On a day to day basis, we quickly change the water so it is fresh in crested gecko enclosures.  Also, with a mister, we will do a light spray of water around the enclosure either once or twice per day.  This allows the enclosure to remain humid for the lily white crested geckos to shed properly as they grow.  Lastly, we try our best to spot clean any visible waste such or uneaten food and replace it with a fresh crested gecko diet.

Baby Crested Gecko Diet – Crested Gecko Feeding:

Like most reptiles, lily white Crested geckos for sale are omnivorous meaning they will eat a variety of different things. In the wild crested geckos primarily feed on insects, nectar and rotting fruit.  For this reason, we need to cater to their dietary requirements as best we can in the home habitats that we create. Here at CB, we feed both live insects and Pangea crested gecko diet (which is a crested gecko powdered food you make up using water.  This type of food is used to replace the fruit as well as the nectar that cresties would consume in the wild. Lastly, we dust and use crickets as a feeder insect as they are active at the same time as the geckos (in the evenings).

Crested gecko feeding routines

Basically, as a rule of thumb, we always keep fresh Pangea gecko diet in with our cresties.  We change the food completely, using throw-away plastic food cups, every two days (or 2.5 times per week).  The same goes for water.  Change your geckos’ water at least 2-3 times per week. If you are keeping food and water together on the same gecko feeding ledge, expect to have to change the water every day!

Baby Lilly White Crested Gecko Supplements:

We recommend supplementing every insect feed by dusting the insects with calcium with d3 and reptile vitamin mixture.  Usually, we just dust everything that we feed our geckos.   Using a high-quality crested gecko diet, like Pangea or Repashy will ensure they are getting adequate vitamins and minerals when eating their food.  If you are using T5 High output UVB lighting, use calcium dust or another similar calcium supplement without vitamin d3 in it as you will not need both.

Crested Gecko Activity Pattern:

Many people refer to lily white crested geckos as being nocturnal but that is not accurate! Cresties are actually crepuscular.  What does that mean? They’re most active at dusk and dawn, however, they are also active throughout the nighttime.

Baby Crested Gecko Shedding:

It is normal and part of growing that your baby crested gecko will shed approximately once per month.  Shedding is nothing to worry about, so long as you are misting the enclosure and the relative humidity in the enclosure is maintained at 65-75%. Secondly, after a misting the cresties should be rehydrated and shed with ease.

Crested gecko humidity

Humidity is very important for basically all species of pet geckos.  Cresteds are no different.  By keeping humidity in the proper range, you will help your crested gecko stay hydrated, and shed properly.  Shedding is a big part of a growing baby crested gecko, and without proper humidity can be a problem.

If humidity is too low (air is too try) your baby gecko will have trouble shedding.  For this reason, we recommend using a reptile fogger and hydrometer to be sure you are keeping your humidity around 70%.  70% is the recommended humidity when keeping any morph or color of a crested gecko.  By providing the right humidity, your baby crested gecko will enjoy a much happier life!

Why is my baby crested gecko eating its’ shed skink?

What is my crestie eating? Do not be alarmed, crested geckos, like most other geckos, may eat their shed skin.  For this reason, you may not notice that they have shed unless you catch them in the act. Always be sure to check out the tips of their toes.  Toes, as well as the tail and around the head, can sometimes have stuck shed that you may need to help remove.

Lily White Crested Gecko Size & Growth:

With proper care, habitat, maintenance, supplements crested geckos grow to full size rather quickly. Typically they reach 6-7″ including the tail, and 40-50 grams of overall weight once 12-18 months old.  At this stage, they are considered young adults.  Babies are 0 to 6 months, juveniles 6 to 17 months, etc.  Cresties are reasonably lightweight, smaller species of pet gecko for sale.  Keeping a white crested gecko is the same as any other color crested gecko morph.

Crested Gecko Habitat and Crested Gecko Terrarium Cleaning:

We recommend cleaning your crested gecko habitat fully once a month.  Spot cleaning may be done as often as possible.  Using water or a reptile safe cleaning solution is recommended.  For a substrate with our crested gecko breeder groups, we use paper towels. While paper towels may not look the best, they are certainly a sanitary option, that is easy to clean or change.  Alternative types of a substrate like reptile carpet work but will need to be cleaned weekly and replaced monthly to prevent odor.

baby Crested Gecko Handling:

If you are patient, a lily white Crested gecko can be great for handling and can become quite tame.  While all are different, patience is key to getting your baby crested gecko to trust your handling.  Remember, cresties can drop their tail if they are scared, handled roughly. or if their tail is pinched or pulled.  Having a prehensile tail (they can grip with it) does help them grab and hang from branches, so they are typically reluctant to drop it unless very frightened.  Newly hatched baby crested geckos are at risk of dropping their tails until they settle down which takes a few days.
