Meet Our New Cresties
Just got them in and man are we hooked.
This is turning out to be a great hobby.
They seem a little thin to me but otherwise they are full of pep.

i'm no gecko expert but it seems kinda one sided. if you're trying to keep these guys together you might want to get another opinion.

Sexing crested geckos: HOW TO - Gecko Resource Forums It has been a while since I have kept any geckos, however looking at your photo's I have to agree with Beck.Both those photos showing the "tail end" clearly have prominent hemipenile bulges,indicating males. A mature female 15 grams or more has no bulge at all.check out the link and see what I mean.

Nice guy but he sure look thin, but since they are in good care now I'm sure they will fatten up and get spoiled right away.

I am starting the new habitat tonight.
The woman we got them from used them for breeding so I am not sure just how much "love" they got.
The cage they are in now seems kinda small to me and is rather sparse.
Given the information I have gotten from this site I am confident I can build them a nice home.
