I am getting a crested gecko an i want to know where is the best place to put him??

#1. This one is in my bedroom and as you can see there is a lamp just in case i need a little heat ; i prefer this spot because it is safe in my bedroom

#2. The second spot is in my living room where every one can see him and i can also easily use a light in case his tank needs to be heated.

#3. This spot has a removable light also in case i need heat it keeps humidity(which is important) and is safer in my bedroom and is behind a second set of doors!

Answer 1

That all depends on a few things...1 &3 are good options although personally, I would go with the first just because...

1)behind closed doors (pic3), the air could get stagnant as oppose to being out in the open like pic 1 (although if you leave the glass doors open for some time during the day it shouldn't be a prob)

2) I don't know if the shelves in the 3rd pic are removable but if they aren't, i wouldn't place the gecko there for the simple fact that I would want more vertical height for the gecko considering they are semi arboreal. although if the gecko is small and has a smaller enclosure than i guess the shelves height wouldn't be a problem :)

if you have a cat/kitten or a curious clunky dog and live in a not so humid environment then the third place would be best.

if you don't have either of these mentioned above then Id put it in the 1st spot .....just a few things to consider

sorry for the essay lol Good Luck :)

Answer 2

1st or 3rd spot
