Hi Everybody,
I purchased two tokays yesterday at a reptile show, and I need a little advice as to what has and has not worked for the more experienced keepers out there. These guys are certainly wild caught as they were the run-of-the-mill 2 for $10 geckos. For right now I have them in a 30 tall with a mixed bedding of aspen shavings and coconut bark. After reading this forums and realizing just how much space they need, I plan to purchase a 260 gallon mesh reptarium at lllreptile. So now I just need suggestions as to what sorts of things to put in the cage. What kind of substrate works best? Would they like a waterfall in there for some added humidity? What about plants - live or fake flexi-branches? If I opt for live plants, do I need to worry about toxicity or will they not decide to taste them? I also have a question about deworming for those of you that have dealt with wild caught specimens. What is the best method? I was going to go for 2 doses of panacur a week apart, but I'm concerned that won't wipe out some protozoans. Should I panacur first and then Flagyl a few weeks later? Thanks so much for all the input, I know this was a lot of questions in one post!
