what is the best kind of geckos?

[ZEKESMOM]

Of course I had to vote crestie! My Chomper has been extremely easy to care for and a load of fun to watch grow

Cresties are indeed awesome and super easy (as Emily said, no supplemental heating necessary). Save on the heating supplies and you can get yourself an awesome morph! I also agree that gargoyles (another Rhac species) is pretty darn cool. I have had a little one for a year now and she's an adorable little fatty! She also comes out more during the day than the cresties do so it's a little more fun to watch her!


Hope it helps!

I voted Leopard Gecko. I got one for my 8 yrs old son. He loves it. They're gentle, nice colors and easy to clean up after). We also have a Ball Python and Bearded dragon. The Leo is his responsibility and he loves taking care of it.

I personally prefer Leopard geckos

I said Cresties: I love the little guys! I'll hopefully have some soon.....

my first reptile was a leopard gecko and i wouldnt trade him for anything, he dumps in the same corner everytime and eats well, super easy to take care of and live a long life as well, i would go with the leopard if i were you

I started my herp addiction with Leo's. Just like everyone else said, they're super easy to care for. But it's up to you.

Leos or AFTs(african fat tail geckos) are the 2 best first geckos IMO, crested are another good choice.

i had two pictus geckos but they died due to my stupidity i garee leos or cresties are the best for beginners cus i know you ant something you can handle
i recomend getting one as a baby those about a month old so you can teach it to be handled (y;ou know what i mean.) pictus geckos are not a good choice although they look really nice all they do is hide 24/7 lol i had to bring them up i have yet to hear anyone on this forum mention a thing about pictus geckos. or satanic leaf tails beautiful geckos.
