      Clancy is a real charmer. Potty training, eh. How is that going so far?

        Surprisingly well! I think it will take me about another month or so. He will crawl out of his tank to go potty already so I started following him with a doggy pee pad and he will crawl on once he is ready to finally release haha. I will also give him a treat each time he does. We still have some close calls if I’m not home to help him haha !

          That’s adorable. I recognize those pee pads, I use them under my cats’ box. I assume you began to engage in this training adventure because you have a busy lifestyle and this will cut down on pooping scooping and odor. Am I right?

          Yes ! Was the perfect tool for cleanup and helps him recognize that they are affiliated with him going potty! Work in progress but I believe he’s a super smart boy ! His adopted brother the crested geckos cheers him on as much as he can haha

          OK now that’s a visual. I am now imagining a chorus line of crested geckos with pompoms, dancing upright and shaking them shouting, “Go, Fight, Win!” Very cartoon, I know.

          Have you tried potty training the cresties?

          Hahaha that makes me laugh out loud just thinking about it! But no, he will typically poop in his water bowl and that’s just about an easy enough cleanup for me !

          Yeah that water bowl thing is pretty common. Must look like a toilet to him.
