Our Feature Reptile
CRESTED GECKO |
In nature, these delightful geckos live in the forests of New
Caledonia. Introduced into the hobby only in 1994, the Crested Gecko
has very quickly become one of the most popular animals readily
available to hobbyists. Breeding in captivity is not a problem and
they have proven to be quite hardy and easy to maintain. A fantastic
choice for beginner to advanced keepers.
