All foods must be no longer than half the width of Its head. Food should be supplemented with calcium and multivitamins. Some leopards have grown to 12 inches.

The tail is banded white and light black, they are white on bottom. Young geckos are generally banded yellow and dark brown which fades into the spotted pattern as the gecko matures . The male geckos seem to have a broader head and neck than the female and the bodies are somewhat larger. Its legs are long and thin and it holds its body well off the ground when it runs.
