Tokay geckos are found in the rural and suburban areas of Asia. In the past 15-20 years hobbyist's have bred these geckos to inroduce new "morphs" during this time they've been able to adapt to our living conditions here in N.America. As time passes by tokays are now rural to Southern United States and ranging across Europe-Asia.
Tokay geckos are native to North Eastern Asia. Including: Vietnam, Malyasia, Indonesia.
The Chinese water dragons cannot live with the Tokay geckos because they will feast on them.
Tokay geckos are known to be the "pitbull" of the gecko family. They tend to be very territorial and aggressive, although can be hand tamed.
No, Tokay Geckos may be more violent but Bearded Dragons are bigger.
It's a Hoax..
Tokay geckos do not show the hemiphorical bulges like leopard geckos or cresteds. males have pores (as do all male geckos but they usually have a bulge) that are lining their "vents" these pores are where the male anatomy is contained. Pores are darker coloured spots along the geckos vent.
A tokay geckos natural instinct is to defend one's self. A tokay will bark to ward off predators, call a mate, stress, or simple exhaustion.
Tokay geckos natural region is located throughout southern Asia, Indonesia, Malaysia. They have been able to adapt to other eco systems and are now an invasive species in certain parts of the united states. There's been scientific study that a breeding group has been established in southern florida for almost 7 years now.
Tokay geckos are one of the most aggressive gecko species. They're often reffered as the pitbull of the gecko world. These animals do not enjoy handling. Your presence is enough to startle this species.
Some can be tamed, maybe if you got it young enough. But short answer, no. Tokay's are notorious for being rather nasty tempered.
I would only keep one Tokay per tank, especially a male. They can be highly territorial.
