Tell me about your crested. I've been wanting to get into some other species lately (I have leopard and tokay at the moment), but really couldn't decide on Leaftails or Cresteds....

My crested geckos are great.....the one i bought first, Zeek is cool, alittle not happy now that i've moved him/her out of eye shot of the TV......i swear he would sit and watch it lol.

Tonight however, when feeding my two new ones (male, female) the male dropped his tail..I'm not exactly sure what happened, but she jumped then he jumped after her and they went running around the tank, him chasing her. In the process they knocked over the humid hide so i turned it upright and all of a sudden his tail was there flipping around while he was at the back......i'm so not happy. I've never seen that happen before....not something i want to see again actually. She has always been the calm one, she's rather curious about me always coming to the glass where i am to see what i'm doing. He would keep his distance. They are really cool geckos, i like them alot. Just not sure now what to do with him. They are on papertowels but trying to put any medicine on the wound is a no no...he won't let me near him on a good day. I've just let them be for now. Zeek on the other hand is alot calmer... I think you should get one
