Gecko Advice! ! ! ! ! !

Yeah thats true ive seen a few within my price range but if i have to go a little bit above im not too fussed

 

[Mighty_Moose]

well ive figured with a 45x45x45 i could get bynoes or an aboreal so the enclosure comes first then when ive decided fully on the gecko the furnishings then obviously the gecko

smooth knobbies are hard as nails and will fall gravid as easy as anything, just cool in winter and then BAM,
i will be incubating my eggs when they are laid in a few weeks time, (hopefully)

lesueurs velvet gecko's noticed an ad for them $50 each or two for $85

 

[Mighty_Moose]

Thanks mate but i spose they will be going for $100+ a pop ;P

 

[Mighty_Moose]

pairs of unrealated Thick tails going for $160 hows that ?

 

[geckos_are_great]

good price i paid $180 for mine

 

[Mighty_Moose]

Im yet to decide on them but if you say its a good price i shal keep an eye out for more if that guy sells

 

[greeny1]

leasures sound alright.

 

[Mighty_Moose]

Hmm im leaning towards them or velvets because ive seen a few around for cheap or a pair of bynoes

 

[greeny1]

yeah, thats what id go for if i was you.

In my opinion a 45 x 45 x 45 tank is too big for all those geckos, if you go bynoes a starmaid or sistema 7 ltr tub will suffice, check out reptiles australia mag a few issues ago for a setup. all the rest will be happy in a 30 x 30 x 45 i would even go a 30 x 30 x 30 for the golden tails

 

[greeny1]

I know its bigger than they reccomend but i think its a nice size, if he wants to spend the money to make a nice looking enclosure he should.

i like spoiling my geckos so my tank is massive 45x45x75

 

[Mighty_Moose]

So you would say the bigger isnt alwasy better ? So if i was to buy the exo terra 30x30x45 would they still be ahppy to breed etc ?

 

[geckos_are_great]

yeah they should be fine.

 

[geckos_are_great]

that* should be fine

 

[Mighty_Moose]

Hmm that would save me $50 to put towards some geckos

 

[Mighty_Moose]

Only reason i sound rushed is because i will be buying it tommorow for my big day ;P and i dont think they refund reptile enclosures ;P
