    Correction* I meant to say for terrestrial gecko breeding facilities they can use short enclosures to save space vertically. So with crested geckos saving space horizontally is key*

    The gray color seems like it would relax the gecko better to allow better feeding response and less stress levels

    • @robbysreptiles
      @robbysreptiles  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Possibly. I find any and all reptiles I've kept like to retreat to darker, enclosed spaces to feel safe. And the geckos choose to come perch by the screen when they want more light

      They are 30 or 28 per tub, but REGULARLY they have 25% off sales and that's when I always buy them so I got about 150 of the biggest size and 400 of these tall narrow for about 9.5k or so, might be less adult tubs but it was somewhere around there

      Actually crested geckos DO require uvb lighting. If they require vitamin D3 then they actually require uvb for a healthy long life span.

    • @robbysreptiles
      @robbysreptiles  ปีที่แล้ว

      There are thousands of 15+ year old geckos that do not have uvb lighting.

      @kkay4372 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      th-cam.com/video/TYUFqbCjkcg/w-d-xo.html
      Obviously from a breeders perspective using grow out bins would be a more economical way to house multiple animals. Uvb also wouldn't be cost effective for numerous animals. What's best isn't always practical on a larger scale necessary to turn a profit for a business vs a hobby breeder.
      Perhaps a better way to respond to the uvb question is crested geckos benefit from uvb as they would receive in their natural habitat. If kept in captivity without uvb you can potentially avoid health issues such as mbd by feeding a balanced crested gecko diet and feeding crickets dusted in calcium D3 powder.
