Its all due to his attitude he is oveuslly a moody gecko and dosent like being held unlike other geckos
first of all if any breed beside tokay gecko you can hold it! if tokay gecko it is because it does not enjoy it and will bite!
No, a leopard gecko has never bitten me.
Never by the tail. Scoup them up gently and let them rest in your hands. If it's trying to get away then it doesn't want to be held.
Well it doesn't do anything to the gecko but she might bite you. if you want my two sense no.
The only sure-fire way to make your gecko hand-tame is to handle them daily.
This is an adaptation which not only helps the gecko to camouflage in its habitat, but it also helps the gecko escape from predators. If the predator grabs hold of the what it thinks is the head, the gecko can drop its tail and escape safely. The tail grows back with time.
It is not uncommon for a gecko to eat another gecko of smaller size. Its natural for them to hunt something smaller then them. Adults should never be housed with juvi's or babies. Also, animals that come from different parts of the globe should never be housed together as the two separate species will require different needs.
never! unless he/she looked ill.
Probably; I've never seen a gecko in a Starbucks.
Never ever force feed a gecko it is harm full to their body to forcefully open the jaws of a gecko. If your animal is refusing to eat and there are physical signs of weight loss, a visit to the vet may be in store.
The scientific name for Tokay Gecko is Gekko gecko.
YES IT WILL ! NEVER feed a reptile on food that is NOT part of their natural diet ! Apart from the fact that they would NEVER eat cheese in their normal life - cheese is full of FAT - which is just as bad for a gecko as it is for humans !
