Summary: Learn about the different varieties and types of gecko lizards with expert tips on pet lizards in this free video series.
"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."
