Geckos

If you enjoy fish. It's a rather low-maintenance animal. You can't hold it. You have to be careful with its water levels. You need to remember to feed it. And that's about it.

You can buy a book, look on Wikipedia/the Internet, and ask other friends/people. These are only a few solutions. Additional ideas Most towns have a local library, and libraries have stepped into the modern age and have computers. They also have trained staffers to help you find things on the Internet. They can teach you stuff, if you're willing to learn it. That's aside from any books they may have on the shelves, or can get from another branch or the central library. A local pet store will have books and may even have a staff member who is up to speed on these critters. Also, there are bookstores (new and used) in lots of communities. If you are living in a larger community, there may be a herpetological society branch in town ("herp" society - reptiles and such). Ask any pet store workers if there is a local person who is an expert. You will have asked that question at the library, as well. Become your own computer expert and master the simple and essential tools of web searches on your computer. Even with the slowest connection and an old machine, information can still be had. Go get it. Good luck.

most insectivore species of gecko will readily eat 5-10 live feeders depending on the size of the gecko. Geckos that rely on fruits, saps and pollens can usually eat up to a tea spoon of MRP (meal replacement powder) Feedings should be taking place everyday for babies and every other day for adults.

Meal worms, wax worms, super worms, tomato worms, phoenix worms. If you go to your local pet store you can see the supply of worms they have there should be a variety of live feeders available for the reptile hobbyist'

Depends on how fancy a set up you want, for example if you already have a tank you only need heat mats and you don't need artificial lights as you would with Bearded Dragons. I priced it up for a 3ft tank and it would cost £30 for all the accessories as i already have the tank.

They are Desert animals. Dont put them in a Tropical environment. I dont know how that would work out. For more info on how to care for them just look up 'Leopard Gecko Caresheet' onlne somewhere. It's easier than waiting for a answer on here.

you can't really train a leopard gecko to do anything. but you can train them to do easy things such as eating out of your hand. to do this, place a mealworm on your hand and your Leo will come and eat it. if he does not come out the first time, don't be get upset because it will take time before he can really trust you.

The leopard gecko is a very territorial species ranging from the south/eastern Asian countries. They rarely come face to face with humidity and love the heat with temps reaching 105F. The pictus gecko (Paredura. Picta) "Madagascar ground gecko" is a very docile species preffering to live in small numbers of 2-4 individuals. The pictus thrive in temperatures ranging from 75-85 and love a small humid hide. These two speciescannot co exist with one another, as they would never be face to face naturally in the wild.

Like with all limbs on almost any creature, the nerves are still active once the limb has been removed from the body. In the example that a bird snatches a Crested gecko by the tail, they "drop" the tail and as the tail continues to wiggle around, the crested gecko is able to escape into some brush, while the predator is enjoying a nice tasty tail.

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.

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.

No, a cat will come to no harm eating one of these lizards.

The average length of a gecko is 2 inches up to 8 inches.

it could mean they are shedding but most likely they are dying, my freinds geko turned white right before dying :[

In captivity, Tokays are known to grow up to 100Grams + extending over 10-12Inches.

There has been recorded case's where some tokays in their natural habitat are reaching 150 - 250 Grams. These animals are obese.

If you want to breed them. Leopard geckos reach maturity at about 9 months old, and a male can have several females. Beginning about 3 to 4 weeks after mating, the female gecko will have a clutch of eggs, usually 2, that hatch in about 2 months. You would be advised to keep male geckos away from the eggs and the young hatchlings.

a leopard is 5 to 4 feet
6 ft long 3 ft tall

NO! They are insectivores only. Which means they only eat insect with an occasional pinkie mouse.

A gecko drops its tail as a defense mechanism induced by fear. When a predator approaches, the gecko is able is drop the tail and leave it behind to entice the predator. However, the gecko then loses the fat stored in its tail that will keep it healthy during times when food is harder to find.

yes but try not to feed more than 3 or 4 a day b/c meal worms are varry fatty and try to avoid feeding them too many meal worms. after ur gecko has eaten them give them a bit of chicken baby food to help the digestion system. U can do this by put some baby food on the tip of ur finger and then whipe it on the end of their nose, the gecko will eventually lick it off. i would give them 2 or 3 lickfulls of the baby food. oh and also mix a little of their calcium powder in the baby food. this is VERY important, so do not forget to do this!

The teeth are very tiny and so while sharp enough to grab onto a small insect, as he slams his mouth shut, they usually do not puncture human skin. If a gecko is really convinced a small finger is a tasty worm to eat: you may find an adult with the strength of his jaw can draw blood as he scratches the surface of the skin but it will not be a deep wound. If he catches the side of your hand however he will realise not tasty snack and not clamp down hard.

In what I know, leopard geckos eat veggies. I hope that helps!

leopard geckos still eat insects. go with a crested gecko they can eat crested gecko diet, that is powder that you mix with water and they eat fruit and yogurt but mainly feed him the diet, and if you can try giving him a cricket or two every two weeks but its not nessesary, they're better than leopard geckos cause of their diet, and while a leopard gecko would sit and look pretty a crested gecko actually moves, their housing is usually cheaper because they're aborial and need a tall tank insted of a long one like a leopard gecko's. and rainforest tanks for cresteds look better than desert style tanks for leopard geckos. and cesteds come in more varieties including yellow with black spots if you like the leopard look, to me they are better to handle when you learn how to handle them than leopards, just observe tem in the tank and watch the pose they go into before they jump that way when you handle them you can know when to stop them and block their path before they jump, don't worry they take their sweet time in getting ready for a jump, but for safety handle them close to the floor and preferably over carpet hope this helps you

To raise a lepord gecko, you need to have a good sized cage, climbing activity, a wet box, a cricket bowl, cricket calcium, crickets from PET STORES, a daylight bulb, a nocturnal bulb (you should have the day light bulb placed in at 9am or earlier until 7:50pm, and that's when you place the night bulb in)., a cricket cage.
