Hey all,

I was wondering what you think about my cresty's diet..I've had him for quite awhile now(he is my gf's,but I have been taking care of him for the last 6 months)..He is alittle over 1 years old now..He eats crickets a couple times a week,sometimes I don't give him any some weeks but I like to give him crickets cause he loves them so much..I also dust his crickets with minerals(yellow cap)..He eats a variety of safe baby foods too..I also mix in his crested gecko diet in with his baby food,I don't know the specific amount but I know he is getting a good amount(a small side of the cap)..I know I'm not over doing the crested gecko diet though..Should I be giving him a specific amount in his food??He is doing really good and is very active..I also use paper towel as his substrate..How often should I put new paper towel in do you suggest??I try to clean up his waste when I see it,but I know he is peeing too..haha..I saw a thing about parasites in the paper towel..How could that happen??I also don't use any lighting since I know its bad for them to get to hot or too cold so I keep the room at around 75 and at most 80..He is in very good condition and looks to be a good weight..He eats really good too and drinks a lot..He also is pretty good about coming out to chill,but I don't take him out too much..He has never tried to bite anyone,so he's good in my book..haha..Sorry this is so long,I wanted to get all my info in this..Hope to hear back from someone soon..Thanks..
