    Chahoua X Crested Gecko Hybrids

    I recall seeing a picture of a crestie x sarasinorum hybrid in a slide show. I think it was from a presentation that PDV and Allen Repashy at a reptile convention years ago. Pretty sure that's what it was. I really wanted to try, and still might try the chahoua x garg, or maybe crestie x garg...

    To Leachie or not to Leachie... that is the question.

    Sounds like a great setup Michael! She will come around eventually.

    Calcium Crashes

    Here is a picture of the liquid calcium I use. Obtained from Gotham Geckos. They offer multiple flavors as well. You can see they include a little chart on the bottom of how many ml a gecko should recieve based on their weight. I think they also include a syringe with the liquid calcium.

    Female Chahoua Sperm Retention

    I am still new to breeding chahoua, so my experience is limited. I was wondering if the female chahoua can retain the male sperm for laying multiple clutches of eggs. Gargoyle geckos can retain sperm for 3-6 clutches. Maybe more? Leachies supposedly can only get 1 clutch per male encounter...

    To Leachie or not to Leachie... that is the question.

    I have had issues like this in past. Most of my baby leachies took awhile to settle in. 2-3 weeks sometimes. The tip that I was told is to use a water bottle or water jug cap for food. Something very low to the ground. Also make sure the enclosure isn't too big for the baby. Not sure what you...

    Chahoua X Crested Gecko Hybrids

    I have talked with Charlie quite a bit and got some good tips and info from him :). He is the one who really inspired me to work with them, so my standards are high. I wasn't aware Elizabeth was into hybrids, but then again I don't follow her or know much about her. I will have to check out her...

    Chahoua X Crested Gecko Hybrids

    Thank you for the advice! I wouldn't mind holding them back and watching them develop until I can find trustworthy people to rehome to. I know it's hit or miss with the eggs being fertile, just a project I wanted to try out because it would be cool to have A hybrid or 2 in my personal...

    Chahoua Trios? 3-ways? 3 Somes?

    Some geckos are prettier than others Michael lol. Or maybe she has a really great personality. Or a nice round tail.... 😂

    Chahoua X Crested Gecko Hybrids

    You certainly can ask why. Can I ask why not? I think the hybrids are super cool and gorgeous. I know it may not be "natural" but keeping reptiles in general is not natural. I know some people may have mixed feelings about it and that's fine. Whether it's ethical or not ethical. If anyone has...

    Chahoua X Crested Gecko Hybrids

    Starting this thread to see if anyone has ever tried or is thinking about trying a chahoua x crested gecko hybrid project. I myself am trying it for the first time this summer. It peaked my interest since I heard about it a few years ago and now I finally have a RTB proven female crested to...

    What fruit diet are you currently feeding your chahoua?

    Do you have better feeding responses with this diet than with straight pangea?

    Egg Incubation Medium & Methods

    I have been using the SIM container suspension method for 2 years with good success, even though I haven't had many eggs. 6 out of 7 eggs hatched. The one egg fully developed but never hatched and died. I cut it open days after the clutch mate hatched after it started to dent. My chahoua and...

    Chahoua Trios? 3-ways? 3 Somes?

    This is some great information! I will definitely be coming back to this when setting up my trio this coming fall. I just bought a pretty decent 18x18x18 exo terra from a local. I think this might be a good space for the trio to inhabit.

    In-Tank Incubation / Will Chahoua Eat Their Offspring?

    I have had them in the past and thoroughly cleaned everything and let everything dry out. Worked for about half a year to a year and I have them again. The seem to originate from my chahoua enclosures. They have peat moss as their substrate. I try to let it dry but I don't want to drop the...

    In-Tank Incubation / Will Chahoua Eat Their Offspring?

    I guess you have bioactive tanks so it doesn't really matter, but because of all that moisture do you have wood mites? The little mites that crawl around in the soil and in the food dishes?

    What fruit diet are you currently feeding your chahoua?

    I am curious to see how they react to the Repashy Grubs 'N' Fruit. I had less chahoua than I do now when I tried it for the first and last time. I was not impressed with the results one bit. I dont recall any of my geckos touching it and if they did, it was not much. I offered it many times and...
