1. Wood and water dammage ...Just put a couple coats of poly. Ive been using 9 wooden screen cages for over a year with no problems what so ever . and a very large one for a iguana for 6 years.



2. Humidity and screen cages --humidity and cresteds is misunderstood and overrated. Thier country isnt a constant 75% humidity. It rains humidity goes up the sun comes out it goes down .Your cages should completely dry out as well.Reptiles like to dry out and mold will be a problem if your cage is always damp.

Secondly cresteds dont require high humidity for thier health.a misting each day seems more than adequate.



3.Crickets ..put the crickets in a tub they wont be able to climb out but the geckos can climb in .After a few feedings the cresteds figure out how to get them.A plastic tub is better than glass cresteds never really catch on to see through walls and bang thier heads alot.



4.size ...I dont think cresteds need to be in a small enclosure to survive .Im sure they would enjoy the space.However males will stake out a territory and do battle till thier tails come off.So a large enclosure doesnt mean you can have more cresteds (Although I suppose thats how its done in the wild) But who knows how big a territory a male crested would own?
