 Cuweena just wanted to say hi...

Hello all, it’s been a while since my last post. Cuweena is doing great and I thought I’d share some recent pix. She recently moved from her 10 gal. into a 15 gal. and is loving it. 5 more gal. makes a huge difference. It looks a lot bigger in person, just a few inches shorter in length than a 20L, 6 inches if I’m not mistaken, same height and depth. I have it set up so she has plenty of room to explore.

Hope everyone and their Geckos are doing well!

She’s great! She will let me pick her up without flinching and hold her for hours. She doesn’t like it much when I take the hide off her, but she just looks at me like "what the heck are you doing man!" and backs up a little. Speaking of hides, I just picked up one of those Exo-Terra caves that hold together through the glass. It’s awesome! She went right in the second I showed it to her and made herself nice and comfy. I dropped a container of 10 crix in and a couple went right in to her. She got 2 within 5 min. before I left for work (9:30pm). She’ll come out to get the rest when she’s ready, as usual.
I have been feeding her 8 a night for the last 5 nights, started on 10 tonight. That every other day schedule just wasn’t cutting it. She’s been pretty willing to eat ever since the last substrate change.

Thats great to hear. Your feeding her daily now? She must be packing on the weight, keep an eye on her weight you usually only feed breeders and young’uns daily, keep me up to date because my fatty likes to leave a couple of crix from the night to eat the next day, but i was contemplating switching him over to 6-8 crix a night rather than 12-20 every 2 days.
