Young male crested gecko

Description

I have this juvenile male crestie up for a new home. He's 16g, definitely a male, and he's super, super sweet and very handleable. The only downside is you do need to make sure he has a VERY densely packed enclosure as he does everything in his power to try and sleep upside down, which is not super great for cresties. As you can see in the photos he's developed a bit of FTS, (floppy tail syndrome) but it hasn't worsened this last few months because I've given him 3 ledges, 2 coconut hides and a million plants to hide in so he doesn't sleep upside down as much. FTS stands for floppy tail syndrome, it is when a crested gecko sleeps upside down and the base of their tail starts to become misshapen. If not taken care of, it can get worse. Luckily FTS is not a hereditary issue and it happens pretty frequently in crested geckos and can be taken care of very easily by just adding more resting areas, hides and foliage for them to find comfortable sleeping places. Geckos with FTS can still be bred and live completely normal, happy lives as long as it doesn't get severe. This boy is not at that point. Anyways, this boy does not come with an enclosure, but I will include some of his plants and such. I'm asking a rehoming fee of 50 for him. He has lineage as well.
