For the best health and well being of your new pet, it is important to remember to take it directly home. If you have more shopping or errands to complete, consider picking up your pet last. This will ensure the animal encounters the least amount of stress possible. Additionally, make sure your new family member is allowed enough time to adjust to its new home. Wait three or four days before attempting to handle your pet and always supervise children when they interact with pets.
Day geckos are some of the brightest vivarium pets available today.
Although with patience these beautiful geckos can be tamed, excessive handling can cause undue stress and tear their sensitive skin. Children should not attempt to handle these fragile geckos without adult supervision. Additionally, a basking area should maintain a local temperature of 85 to 95 degrees. Night time temperature should remain between 65 and 75 degrees. The humidity for day geckos should be kept at or near 80 percent.
