Everything is mixed

We need a clock thread so we know a day or two before we get eggs. I thought geckos only lay 2 eggs? I still have so much to learn about cresties.

That's right Laurie - they lay two eggs per clutch and up to 6 or so clutches per year! Not sure when she will lay exactly, but it could be anywhen from next weekend onwards. I am hoping she is gravid as she has gained a gram since I last weighed her, so it's looking hopeful!

I have also got my fingers crossed that there are 2 babies .....

Eeeeeek, I'm so excited!!!!

 

[laurie]

Yes, yes, yes, two tiny cresties will be so cute. I can hardly wait.

 

[Angsty]

That is what we said they sounded like ducks!!! Lol

 

[PattyCake]

I will be listening to the whoop of joy out here in Canada. Will keep looking at this thread for more news-to be precise, news that I can't hear in Canada

 

[crocky]

These guys are such beautiful critters. I am guessing by your pic of them in their hide that they can be housed together without too much trouble of the male stressing the female?

Can't wait to see the outcome of this pair!

Me neither! Coz if there are 2, then I'll be getting another addition in August!!!

AND I'll be picking baby up in person after attending vdub island. So I'll get to meet Tiff and all of her scaley babies!!! WOOOOHOOOOO!

Words cannot describe my excitement!!!!

So here's to hoping the beautiful buffie has 2 gorgeous babies on the way!!

You can keep a male and up to three females in a cage if you want lots of baby cresties but don't have two males together. Not A good THING trust me.

 

[Miss Lily]

I am well aware of not keeping males together. I bought Splat as confirmed male when he was 4 months old. I got Buffie a few months later. I hadn't intended to look for a female, she just turned out to be one! I got lucky with her!

Oh Kat! I can't wait either! I will make sure I keep you posted either on here but more likely on facebook. The time will soon pass as you will be rather preoccupied once your two legged baby arrives!

Some people keep them together all year round whilst others just put them together for a month or so just to breed. I thought they looked so sweet all cuddled up together until a friend told me that they don't cuddle, they are both wanting the best sleeping spot! I am hoping that he won't hassleher continually and that they can stay together, but should he lose too mcuh weight then I will have to remove him for a while. males can be so intent on mating that they don't eat. They are both being weighed once a week to keep an eye on things. They appear to live quite hapily together, if that's possible for reptiles!

Yeah I got both of my cresties at a month old and I had kept them together since a about 2 months ago when they hit puberty and got all territorial and I notice small scab things on there head so I separated them.
