Picked up a new crestie baby over the weekend

[Kearth]

I have no idea what moprh she is ( hoping if I call it a she it will end up being a she. The power of postive thinking)

anyways I had no plans on getting one but this one was priced right and I thi k absolutely georgous.  Not fired up she is a burnt orange almost red with blackish striping and a few dalmation dots.

Anyway, moving on the the question I have a 10 gal with paper towel bottom, a birds nest fern and a few drift wood pieces.  This is my frst experience with a baby so will the 10 gal be too big....If so what do you suggest I use?

Thank you

i have had good luck houseing juvies in the "medium" size kritter keepers. they are small enough for the little guys to find food, but still big enough to house a juvie until its about 10-15 grams. at that point i move them to a bigger terrarium.

So I should move her to something smaller?

Yea i would put her in something smaller, even like a largeish plastic tub would work till she's about 12 grams, then the ten gallon should be good
