For their amazing colors, interesting behaviors, longevity, and attractive appearance, geckos are favored by beginning hobbyists. Colorfully illustrated, Geckos provides guidelines for keepers who wish to add a gecko to their vivarium and maintain their pet in excellent health and condition. The editor provides an introduction to gecko characteristics including size, feet, eyes, color and pattern, scales, shedding, reproduction, tail, sexing and activity, to help beginners better understand the anatomy and behavior of these fascinating lizards. This Advanced Vivarium Systems title includes information about selecting a healthy gecko, handling, housing needs, water and feeding requirements.
