Hosuing Crested Babys.

krn Nov 12, 2006 05:40 PM

Hello i have a two baby crested gecko that i have hatched. One is 5 months and the other is 4 months. They are almost the same size and both are healthy. Is it ok to house them together? Or would u reccomend Seperate housing for each? Thanks Kevin

You can house them together. Separate them if they are both males, which will be apparent around 9 months of age.

I would separate them when sexable whether its two males or a pair.. two females would be okay. If its a pair, you don't want them breeding too early, so separate as soon as you know. Put them back together when they've reached a safe breeding weight. Just watch the size difference and keep an eye out for bullying and it should be okay. I'd recommend a scale for keeping a fine eye on size difference.

Cheers,
Nick
