Crested Caging Question

Howdy, im debating to get cresties.Heres what id have planned for them.I have this glass enclosure(normally used as a display case)i found in my garage.The dimensions are 5' 11" H,20" L, and about a foot deep.Would this be adequate for a few baby crested geckos to live in for a while?Thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

Wow, 5'11''? That may be a little overwhelming. It might be difficult to find food and such. For a few babies what I would recommend is a 10 gal on its side. I use an 18x18x24 for a couple of adults. No fear! Run to the pet store and buy a little plastic critter carrier for a couple bucks, I have a larger one housing my three little ones.

I really don't know. It really seems like a foot long width would make for a bad jumping space for an adult... I hadn't thought about it... You know what you could do? You could put some spacers in there and use each little space as habitat for a babyor two!!

Its a display case so it does have full length glass doors?

well with a lot of vines and greens that would make a beautiful display for adults...but I agree about the babies...it's too big to make sure they're all eating and can see the food...
would be better to raise babies in smaller containers...I keep babies in 6 x 6 x 9 critter keepers but you can put them in ones a bit bigger

or you can just start with adults...

cresteds are a lot of fun a have great variety...I hope you enjoy them
