: can anyone give me tips on taming rhacodactylus ciliatus? and for shipping.... what shipping company should i use? thx... much obliged =)


I have had quite a few Crested Gecko's and have never had one that was not tame. Some take a little time to calm down, but I have never had one try to bite or defend itself. As for shipping: Make, buy, or find an insulated box to use for shipping first. This time of year, the temperature can change drastically depending on where the gecko is going. As for a company: Make some calls. Not every shipper allows reptiles to be shipped.
