Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I picked up a trio of crested gecko's not to long ago to dink around with on the side. (and you have to admit they are pretty neat) Anyway, I have them set up in a 40 breeder turned on end, but I'm discovering that the crickets can easily crawl through the gaps that are between the screen and the glass. (Don't worry, much too small for the geckos to crawl through.) I was wondering if anyone had used the screen cages from
http://www.chameleoncondo.net/index.htm
and if they did how did they like them? This is a picture from their site of the cage I'm thinking about. Thanks.

i have never used a screen Cage for cresteds, as long as you able to keep it humid enough i don't see any problem with keeping them in a screen cage

I agree with Chris.
I've never personally used a screen cage for the species (I have a plentiful and cheap supply of glass tanks... If they weren't free, I might use something else) but provided the humidity can be kept up... You might want to consider adding a cham drip system to help with that as well... Then there shouldn't be any problems. Just watch their noses if it's a ridgid screen, they do tend to crash into things when eating if the prey isn't directly in front of them.

Thanks, for the replys. I'll probably cover three sides with plastic. The setup I have now they try to climb the glass, but when I've just misted they come crashing back down to earth when their feet get wet. They never fall off the screen door of the cage so I thought a screen cage would save them some nasty falls. Shouldn't be too hard to keep the humidity up, I might even put a humidifier in that room near the cage.

Also if your going to use a screen cage, make sure the screen is fine enough so that te Substrate dosen't fall out.
My Crested Attackes his Prey items With a hell of a lot of force for a little gecko so just make sure it can't injure it self on the floor or sides of the cage.
Chris.
