Help!

[Ejavina12]

I need help identifying what kind if chameleon I have. I got him from a little girl who had to get rid of him asap. She didn't know how old he was or what kind he is. I've been researching and I need to know what kind he is so I can get him the right habitat. She had him in a small aquarium, but I want him to be happy.

Isn't that a gecko?

 

[rambonerzilla]

What do you think @Replife @Nursemaia @WAMBO @Kristen Wilkins ?

 

[Peachypink]

Yea, that is not a chameleon.

 

[rambonerzilla]

@Replife might be able to tell you what kind of gecko you have there bud.

 

[rambonerzilla]

If he'd check his dang notifications!

 

[WAMBO]

Don't look like a cham.

 

[Nursemaia]

It looks like a crested gecko. Crested geckos are like chameleons and are aboreal so you need a setup similar to a chameleon. Need something tall with lots of climbing branches and foliage. Get rid of the substrate and don't feed meal worms. Both can cause an impaction.

 

[Replife]

Definitely a gecko definitely not a crested gecko not really sure exactly what type of gecko it is the picture is kind of not too great

 

[Replife]

And that sand shit needs to go asap paper towels are fine repti carpet is better

 

[WAMBO]

It's got Gecko feet too = Gecko

 

[rambonerzilla]

Get a better picture for us @Ejavina12

 

[Nursemaia]

I wasn't 100% sure if it was a crested gecko or not that picture is crap sorry I was making my best guess based on feet

 

[Replife]

If I got to guess it's a house gecko but like u said pic sucks

 

[Remkon]

looks like a tjik tjak (gecko) to me....

Tjik tjak = house gecko

 

[WAMBO]

Do I here an echo, or do we all think it's Gecko?
Word!

 

[Replife]

Indeed the bus has voted you have a gecko in other words that lil girl busted yo head fool

 

[rambonerzilla]

Well the ten drink tokens for the bus go to me for calling it first...... but I have this flask so I'm willing to auction them off. You guys gotta get fast enough to blow out a candle and jump into bed before it gets dark. Yall hear!

 

[Remkon]

Do i get the special bonus price if I give the golden tip:

Dont feed him (so many) mealworms, mealworms aren't very nutritious and can also cause impaction.
Better feed crickets as staple.

 

[rambonerzilla]

take the damn tokens I'm drunk already anyways
