Description<\/strong><\/p>\n

Starting your hatchling gecko off right is one of the most important steps in ensuring a healthy, active, and stress-free life. The Oh My Cresticles Gecko Starter Kit<\/strong> is designed to provide everything a new keeper needs to care for a young Crested gecko (and other tropical fruit-eating species) up to 8 g. This all-in-one setup is perfect for beginners, experienced keepers, breeders, and anyone raising newly hatched geckos.<\/p>\n

\n

Housing & Accessories<\/strong><\/p>\n

Each kit includes a well-ventilated tub that offers a secure, low-stress environment ideal for small geckos. The enclosed space helps maintain humidity, reduces falls, and supports a safe transition through early growth stages. Along with the enclosure, the kit provides both food and hydration essentials \u2014 including a plastic food dish, water dish, and a small spray bottle to maintain moisture levels.<\/p>\n

\n

Nutrition<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nutrition is covered with a 56 g pack of Pangea Complete Crested Gecko Diet<\/strong>, supplied in a flavour based on stock availability. A small tub of calcium powder (5 ml)<\/strong> helps ensure healthy bone development, and a 50 ml feeder insect tub<\/strong> offers enrichment and an occasional protein boost.<\/p>\n

\n

Decor<\/strong><\/p>\n

Naturalistic d\u00e9cor is included to create comfort and stimulation. Each kit contains one artificial plant or vine for climbing, a cork bark tube, and a cork half-round hide, giving the hatchling multiple surfaces to explore and rest on.<\/p>\n

This kit is designed to be simple, effective, and ready to use \u2014 whether you\u2019re setting up your first gecko or preparing multiple babies in a breeding project. Some items may vary slightly due to stock availability, but all components meet the same quality standard.<\/p>\n
