I have had my crested gecko (cupid) for a few weeks now.My mom got me him for valentines day he loves to be hand fed and held he jumps around on my hand. When i get him out he is dark but when i put him back in his terrarium he is almost my skin color. he is one of the kinds that have the pattern on their back. i would definitely recommend this pet to anyone.

Love this little guy! A little fast with handling at first but once you get use to each other very easy to handle. Other Geckos I've seen scream and bite (Leopard) but crested geckos from what i've experienced are sweet. Loves jumping and climbing so a tall terrarium is better. Would recommend this reptile to ages 12 and up, only because the younger the child the more likely to miss handle and possibly squeeze.

I love my crestie! I bought him from petsmart almost a year ago and he is very docile and the best little pet ever. I recommend this pet to begginer reptile owners because of its low maintenance and they are fairly easy to handle

I got my gecko this Christmas as a gift. He's a great pet. Very social, relatively easy to care for, sweet. The only downside is that he pooped on my hand a few times (he really doesn't care where he goes). Overall, he's a great pet and being my first reptile, I'm very impressed. Cresties are great for people who are gone a few times a week, because they don't need daily feeding. I recommend this pet to anyone who wants and easy, social, cute reptile.

I had never heard of a crested gecko before, until my elementary school art teacher got one as a class pet. Right after I held it for the first time, I fell in love. I saved up for one, and last January I adopted Fred. He was nine months old at the time. These are not huge, Fred is only about 8 inches now. They are easy to care for. I spray the tank in the morning and evening, and feed him at night. They need to be fed every day. I would recommend a crested gecko to anyone, from a beginner like me to an old pro.

Great beginner reptiles

The Eyelash Crested Gecko is a great beginner reptile. I have a leopard gecko and am returning to buy another gecko, the "crestie". They love crickets and fruits to get nutrients and hydration.... remember when they hunt they may swallow some bedding which can be deadly- remember no sand or lose substrate... I recomend soft paper towels for back up. My Baby Leopard Gecko is fine with paper towels... I do recomend you use coconut subsrait though or at least double layered paper towels. The Crested Gecko is ornate in trees, fill the tank with ivy and other vegitation- if you want to be fancey then you can add a nice rainforest backround to give the tank a nice finish.... I sugest you keep no more than two geckos (male and female) in a 10 gallon and remember to never house two males together.
Good luck!

These are very calm and gentle creatures that take to handling very easily. They are very good for beginners as they are low maintenance. I feed mine the Repashi Crested Gecko diet as that has everything they need. My gecko doesn't like crickets - she ate one and won't touch them any more - but most do and they're only like 10 cents at the pet store. Be careful when handling as they like to jump!

Crested Geckos

I love the Crested Gecko! They are very easy to take care of, and are so much fun to hold. The intial cost is a little pricey, but its worth it. My gecko is very cute, and loves to get held. They love to hangout in anytype of plant. My gecko especially loves to crawl around in the leaves and branches, that are in our familys beta fish bowl! They are very fun to watch, and quite curious little geckos. If you are looking to get one, you might want to do research, just so you provide them with a suitable,healthy habitat. I recomend them to anybody who loves reptiles, and they are just a blast to have, i dont know what i would do without mine! Good luck to the future Eyelash Crested Gecko Owners! :)

i got my crestie about a month ago and they are i think the best pet ever!!! I have several other reptiles and animals, but i think my little male crested gecko named Diablo is my favorite. they are really easy to take care of and are beautiful to look at! i would definately recommend this gecko to anyone, experienced or just starting out. Mine is tamed and he loves to just run up and down my arms, jumping from one hand to another. they really are an awesome pet and i am looking foward to spend a long time with Diablo and hopefully many more to come!

We just got an Eyelash Crested Gecko and our kids love her.. They are in the ages of 3-10. She is very sweet and very easy to take care of. It is something our boys are looking at getting when they are able to get their own pet.. They do not require the intense care that some of the other pets out there need. These little guys are a very good first pet for a responsible child.. I also think ago 10 and up is a good age for these little guys.

Crested geckos are really good pets. They can be handled and tamed easily. As with most reptiles and amphibians, they can be fed various insects, and they can also be fed mangoes and papaya, but mine never ate any fruit. They are also very cute and interesting to look at. They make little squeaking sounds, but they aren't loud and its barely audible. Great pet!!!!!!
