Geckos are not dirty and smelly animals no. In most cases, geckos are captive bred and do not carry and parasites, if the animal is wild caught, then there is high chance the animal is carrying parasites. Introducing the animals to a collection of reptiles will allow the parasites to transfer to the other reptiles in the area, making them sick as well.

Geckos are clean in the sense of hygiene. They do not smell and even shed their skin regularly. Similar to bathing monthly.

No geckos are not slimy. They are llizards and live on land. Most criters that have a slimy covering live in the water and need it for protection.
no they are not slimy, they are scaly like a normal lizard

there are types that are less "tame" than others, but normally you can tame them. The first 3 weeks of having any reptile don't take it out of their tank or clean the tank. only mess with the tank when feeding and giving water to. After that slowly let it get used to you. I have tamed my leo and she sits on me fine for awhile. Sometimes if shes not feeling good or is just pissed off at me she will jump but normally she doesn't.
