Wanted to say hello,

I'm not new to reptiles we have been keeping Bearded Dragons and Leopard Geckos for years. We have also had a few other Geckos, pac man frogs, and Tortoises for the years also but I keep being drawn back to the Leopard Geckos. The little guys just have some much personality it's hard to stay away.

Looking forward to learning out others have been keeping their pets and sharing how we have been keeping our little guys.

Wlecome to GU, maybe you will find gecko species in the various threads here which you have never seen before...and will want to know more about them! Leos are great but there are literally hundreds of species of geckos! ;)

I agree I have really been looking at the Fat tails for a while. Don't know if I want to get into those yet but thinking really hard.

I have looked at the Crested geckos also but those don't do much for me.

There are a lot of different little guys but no where near enough time or space for them all.

Hello! Welcome to GU. I'm new here too. You'll find everyone is very nice. There is a lot of great information on here for all levels of experience and different kinds of gecko. :)

Honestly, African fat-tail are not difficult. They are more slow-moving than leopard geckos and adult males could sometimes deliver a bite which may be a bit painful, but they are very easy to keep and breed As they originally come from Western Africa, they need a bit more moisture than leopard geckos, otherwise their care is pretty much the same. I even find them hardier than today's leos, weakened by all these mutations. Egg incubation, vivarium size for adults, temperatures are otherwise the same than for leos ;)
