Looking to get my first Gecko.

Coby · 07-22-2010, 12:56 AM

So Im getting my first Chameleon next week, and I kinda want to get a Gecko as well.

So Im trying to find some info on them, and what would be best for a beginner.

I like the look of Crested Geckos, so I kinda want to go in that direction.

So where is a good resource to find info on keeping them and what all I would need in a setup?

Any other Gecko recommendations or comments?

Robbie Hamper has a book on crested geckos. Leopard geckos and Fat Tail geckos are good beginers as well.

Use google:
do "google image" for geckos you think you're interested in (the suggestions above are good)

once you see a type of gecko you like, google "name-of-gecko care" and read the care sheets to see if you want to meet their requirements.

Good luck,

Aliza

There are also Leopard Gecko care sheets at the top of the page.
