Rocky,
I am not an expert, they have all gone to Daytona. But I will give you general gecko
guidelines. First take the crickets and the pebbles out. The crickets could be
stressing the gecko out, and it might accidently swallow a pebble. Put in paper towel
for substrate. Leave the gecko alone for 3 days, except for misting twice a day. Maybe
this gecko only drinks from misting, I am not sure.
After 3 days, put a couple of crickets in at dusk and see if it eats them. Make
sure the crickets are a little smaller than the distance between the gex eyes. Take
the crix out if it doesn't eat, add more if it does. Don't leave crix in with the gex.
Good Luck,
Cyndy

Hello! I just found your group, and had a question about a
Mediterranean gecko I have. I found it at work last week. I live in
Tampa by the way, where we have an established population of them.
The one I brought home is small, I think just hatched. I placed in
in a clean plastic cage with pebbles, a little hiding cave, a dish of
water, a twig to climb on and several pin head crickets. I know
he's nocturnal so he's not too active in the day, but he hasn't
eaten yet, atleast any of the crickets. How frequently do they eat?
I'm trying not to disturb him during the day, although I did lift
the cave up to see if he was still alive. He ran out, and stopped at
the side of the glass, he tried to climb up but couldn't. I noticed
yesterday, he climb half way up the glass and fell off. I don't know
if this is because he's weak from not eating?
Any advice?
Thanks!
