You'll find detailed information on all aspects of breeding, egg-laying, incubation, and raising hatchlings; what you need to know about skin shedding cycles and tail loss; precise feeding instructions, including supplementation; valuable information on recognizing the signs of illness; how to design and maintain the ideal naturalistic habitat for your pet; stunning color photos of beautiful varieties and color morphs; and more! As a bonus, there are even special chapters dedicated to African fat-tailed geckos, banded geckos, and other eyelid geckos (Eublepharidae), for when you're ready to expand your collection.

Get the foundation you need to confidently purchase, set up, and care for your leopard gecko, and be prepared for what to expect, with The Leopard Gecko Manual!
