Leopard Geckos as Pets

Geckos as pets
Leopard Geckos are among the easiest of lizards to maintain given the proper conditions. They rarely bite and tame easily. Leopard geckos that are handled regularly, remain relatively calm. However, be careful how you hold the gecko. Never by its tail! Geckos tails break off rather easily as a defense mechanism. They will grow back, but never as nice looking as the original tail.
They are relatively clean animals. The majority will define one area of their tank as the 'bathroom' and only use that one area, making it easy to clean."
