Whether you are setting up your very first enclosure or refining an established bioactive habitat, this book provides everything you need to successfully raise healthy, active, and long-lived Gargoyle Geckos in captivity.
Native to the lush forests of New Caledonia, Gargoyle Geckos are fascinating arboreal reptiles known for their unique appearance, calm temperament, and adaptable care requirements.

Health-focused chapters help you identify early warning signs of illness, prevent common diseases such as metabolic bone disease and parasites, and maintain optimal condition throughout your gecko's lifespan. Special attention is given to aging care, helping you adjust husbandry techniques as your gecko transitions through different life stages.
