They are easy to keep really, Livefood like crickets or locusts and Crested Gecko Diet that is like babyfood but smells (and tastes) really nice!! It is like a goo that they lick up (they have lovely tongues!) and has all the minerals and vitamins they need and fruit as a treat.
Need a rainforest substrate as they need to be kept cool (as oposed to things like bearded dragons) and damp, barely need much in the way of heating, just a UV bulb and a heatmat set low with a thermostat (mat stat) and some branches and plants to climb, real or plastic!
They do need spraying every day to keep them damp and they need to be checked and fed each day so not a great pet if you go off on holiday a lot...
Make amazing pets, one of the easiest reptiles to keep, they are fascinating because they can climp straight surfaces like wallpaper and they are friendly and slow if tamed well!
They are fairly expensive to buy though!! Keep an eye out for rescues or free ads as to buy from a shop, £40 each is really cheap!!
