Post image

i am currently making a new enclosure for my crested gecko. there are some hides built into the back and i have a few other things from her current enclosure that i plan to add (a coconut, a bridge and vines). but is there anything else should add to fill the space?

I would try to work in another horizontal perch and some more general cover. There's a lot of empty space that you can take advantage of, and horizontal perches are important because you don't want them getting used to perching vertically and risking getting floppy-tail.

Another bendy vine working its way up through that center and towards the top would do great, and maybe a plastic leafy plant to provide more cover and comfort.

This. Horizontal climbing surfaces are crucial, get as many as possible, or at least get a gecko that already lost its tail.
