Profile & Natural History
Crested geckos are the anti-basking reptile: their island climate never exceeded the mid-20s°C, and summer heat kills them in un-air-conditioned rooms. The complete powdered diet (CGD) revolutionized their care — mix, feed, mist. Vertical enclosure with plants (live or fake), daily misting cycles, and almost no heating equipment: the easiest advanced-looking reptile in the hobby.
