A leopard gecko comes from the deserts of Afganistan and south easter Asia. A Crested gecko comes from the rainforests of New Caledonia. Their habitats are much to different from one another to ever co-exist. All Gecko species are territorial and will not greet one of the same species unless its breeding season. Do not house any other specie with a crested gecko or a leopard gecko.

∙ 11y agoThe correct answer is no. Animals of different regions, habitats and Eco systems cannot sustain life with another animals of different likes. A leopard gecko from the deserts of Afghanistan with temperatures reaching in the low 100'sF cannot live with a crested gecko from the rain forests of New Caledonia where temperatures never exceed 80F with humidity levels on the scale of upwards of 80%. Species of the exact same region with the exact same requirements can be housed together, and even in these circumstances, most avid hobbyist's do not recommend doing so. There are many factors: Temperament of the species, sex's, size of the animals, cooling period and breeding season, individual temperament's, feeding schedules, humidity, heat, lighting.

Can you keep leopard geckos with Madagascar day geckos?
This is some reasons a leopard geckos and Madagascar day geckos can't live together: #1: Madagascars have a different environment than leopard geckos. Madagascar day geckos live in tropical conditions and leopard geckos live in desert conditions. #2 they would be fighting because they are territorial.
What is a reptile that people keep as pets?
geckos can be kept in tanks/vivariums, depending if the have a hut as they are nocturnal. they eat mealworms and insects smaller than a geckos head, they appreciate small spaces. although the tank must have a heater and lighter, as these creatures are from pakistan and india, geckos are adapted to small enviroments. hope this helped! ;)

What lizard is more difficult to care for a leopard gecko or a green anole?
Green anoles require more humidity than leopard geckos do, which means a nightly misting is required. A Leopard gecko requires a standing bowl of water. Both require heating, regular feedings, weekly tank change etc.. It's a matter of personal preference and opinion but leopard geckos are very easy to keep.
Can crested geckos live with anoles?
Leopard geckos require heat reaching 105F and next to 0 humidity. Anoles enjoy cooler temps ranging from 75-85 with humidity levels reaching 70-90%. These two species, from two completely separate eco systems cannot co exist in the same terrarium. Its impossible to mimic their natural environments in the same terrarium.
Can you keep a leopard gecko in a plastic tub?
lots of people keep there leopard geckos in tubs. I'm going to get two leopard geckos for my birthday and I'm going to get one proper glass vivarium and one plastic tub. I do think that it depends how many geckos you are going to get. if you are only getting one then i would buy a glass vivarium. if you are getting 1+ then i recommend a few plastic tubs.

What type of lizard is good for a 7 year old girl?
I would suggest you get a leopard gecko or a crested gecko as your first lizard pet. Both are low maintenance reptiles that have fairly good temperaments. They don't grow very large and don't require a big cage either. However, keep in mind that these lizards live for a very long time and require your time and dedication to live their entire life-spans.other good first pet- gargoyle gecko (care requirements are similar to those of a crested gecko)- bearded dragon (great first pet if you can provide a large enclosure and the proper diet)-geckos of the rhacodactylus genus (these geckos are great first lizard pets! The crested gecko and the gargoyle gecko are members of this genus. Other members of this genus include: leachianus, rough snouted, chaoua, sasorinum geckos. However, these geckos (with the exception of crested and gargoyle geckos) often command a hefty price.
Do gargoyle geckos have eyelids?
Nope - if they need to 'clean' their eyeballs - they use their tongue to lick the surface. Crested geckos have a clear membrane covering the eye, this membrane is a clear, transparent eye contact more or less. it stops dirt, oxygen, water, substrates etc.. from entering the eye. when something external touches the membrane, they will lick their eye in order to remove anything. The Crested geckos come from the Diplodactylinae subfamily under the Genera Rhacodactylus. Geckos of the Eublepharinae Subfamily are known as "eye lid" geckos all have eye lids. These consist of the: Leopard gecko (E. macularius), the fat tailed gecko (E. Hemitheconyx) etc.. When sleeping, resting, swallowing, and of course blink, their eyelids will close.
Can panther geckos live with leopard geckos?
Leopard geckos cannot live with panther geckos. Even though care for both are generally the same, there are some huge differences between the two. Leopard geckos are usually between 7 and 10 inches long (some almost a foot), and panthers are 4-6 (or occasionally up to 8) inches long. This size difference alone could do it. The Leopard geckos would pick on the panther geckos. Also, the climate of the two needs to be very different. Panther geckos live in southern Madagascar naturally, while Leopard geckos live in Afghanistan and neighboring countries. Panther geckos need higher humidity levels than Leopards, and lower temperatures. Together, either the leopard gecko, or the panther gecko, will suffer, if not both. Please, don't keep these two creatures together. It won't work out well.
