Care Basics
Match the furniture to the species — vertical cork for velvet and golden-tailed geckos, floor cover and leaf litter for terrestrial barkers — then the routine is universal: gentle warm end, dusted insects a few evenings a week, light misting for drinking water. Nocturnal and endlessly watchable under a low light. Ask us for the species-specific setup sheet for this exact listing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do barking geckos bark?
Thick-tailed (barking) geckos really vocalise when startled — a defensive audio display that’s all bluff and no bite worth mentioning.
Handling?
Gentle and brief — small Australian geckos are confident but delicate, best enjoyed as active nocturnal display animals.
