Gecko Lizard Varieties & Types

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Johan Svahnström on behalf of Expert Village. You need to get the right gecko for a beginner if you haven't had one before. Try to avoid the real rain forest species, such as the day geckos, and the flying geckos, and the leaf-tail geckos. They tend to be difficult to maintain the humidity and also the feeding. They also need a lot of plants and a lot of different things that you might not want to get for your first gecko. A perfect gecko to get is a desert species, or a dry land species such as the leopard gecko or an African fat-tail gecko. They're easy to maintain, they're easy to warm up, and they eat readily in captivity."
