So I got my crestie about 6 months ago. It started off a bit rocky because I got him without really researching (I know that’s probably the worst thing I could do for him 😢
but the local breeder told me I could handle him the next day. My friend got a gecko from him and hers is great and super well-behaved. Well as you can imagine handprint him the next day was not the right thing to do and I think that’s where he got a bit more skittish. I did some more researching but he never really got better. I tried with him for about a month and he was still really skittish. I know it was a horrible thing to do but I gave up. Today, five months later, I had to clean his cage. I had a box with air holes and some plants set up for him but as soon as my hand came near him he ran away. I realized that I need to start handling him again. I am fully prepared to give him all the time and attention he needs this time I just really want him to be happy where he is. Any suggestions will be SERIOUSLY appreciated. Thank you, I will update later.
