Where could i get a good second hand Gecko tank?

Question

Hey, im interested in buying a good tank for a crested gecko. I looked around my local stores and found a crested gecko start up kit for £90 (includes tank, leaves, etc.) But i was hopeing i might be able to get one second hand cheaper.

Does anyone know of any good sites/ forums for Lizard tanks? I have enouth room for a tank bigger than the shop one; how big would a tank have to be to hold 2 crested geckos?

I live in Southampton, Hampshire, and could not easly travel outside hampshire; so any sites would have too have a local selection.

Also, does anyone know of any good breeders (or people needing to sell) around hampshire?

All help appreciated.

Answer 1

try craigslist or ebay or your local paper and local yard sales

Answer 2

You could ask your local pet stores if they sell second hand cages. or you could try www.craigslist.com... they have new stuff every day  check the pets section.

As for buying the reptile you could order from www.kingsnake.com but it would cost you a fortune for shipping unless you could find someone who would ship for free with a minimum order.

im from the states so...sorry i couldnt help more!

Answer 7

You might post an advertisement in the local paper looking for one...or check the local ads for someone selling one.  Maybe even check with the local stores and see if they know of anyone that wants to get rid of one.  Ask family and friends..they may know someone that wants to get rid of one.  You can also go on www.Ebay.com to try and purchase a used one that may be shipped right to your flat.  Good luck
