Largely nocturnal, generally docile and easy to tame, these interesting reptiles are a perfect choice for beginners who have never cared for a reptile before. Learn more about these fascinating creatures, their behaviors, and how to care for them in the sections below.

Experience Level: Beginner

Expected Size: Leopard geckos grow up to 10 inches (25 cm).

Lifespan: On average, they live for 15-20 years.

Behavior: Docile temperament; Nocturnal

Handling: Easy to handle.

Vet Assured: Pets purchased at PetSmart are part of our exclusive Vet Assured program, designed by PetSmart veterinarians to help improve the health and well-being of our pets. Our vendors meet a high standard in caring for pets and screening them for common illnesses, including Zoonoticdiseases. This program also includes specific standards for in-store pet care.

The PetSmart Promise: If your pet becomes ill during the initial 14-day period, or if you’re not satisfied for any reason, PetSmart will gladly replace the pet or refund the purchase price.

Safety tips for you and your pet:
1. ALL ANIMALS can potentially carry viral, bacterial, fungal, and parasitic diseases contagious to humans. 2. Thoroughly wash your hands with
warm, soapy water before and after contact with any pet or its habitat. 3. Adults should assist children with hand washing after contact with a pet or its enclosure. 4. Use caution when handling pets, and remember they may bite or scratch, especially when stressed.

Feeding Instructions:

  • Feed one time daily to every other day.
  • INSECTS: Crickets, dubia roaches,hornworms, mealworms and/or superworms
  • Dust food with calcium powder 2-3 times a week. Dust with a reptile multivitamin: 1 time a week (juveniles), 2 times a month (adults), or as directed by your veterinarian.

    Housing:
    Recommended pieces include:

  • 20-gallon terrarium or larger
  • Screened lid
  • Daytime/nighttime bulbs and fixture
  • Heat lamp and bulb
  • Thermometer
  • Basking site beneath heat lamp
  • Reptile carpet
  • Food dish
  • water dish (big enough for pet to soak in)
  • Plants and decor
  • Hide (humidity hut)

    Terrarium Set-Up:

  • 1-2 leopard geckos can be housed together in a 20-gallon terrarium. If territorial behavior is observed, increase the size of habitat.
  • Use reptile carpet or tile. Remove droppings at least once a week and thoroughly clean carpet/tile at least every other week.
  • Leopard geckos’s calcium absorption can benefit from
    supplementary 5.0 UVB light.
  • Leopard geckos require a temperature gradient. For the warm side, use an under-tank heater and daytime heat lamp, if necessary. Turn heater and lamp off for 12 hours at night. Use the chart, opposite, to ensure
    proper temperature.
  • Equip the habitat with two thermometers (one on each side) to measure temperature, and a hygrometer to measure humidity. Mist your gecko every other day; keep their hideout humid by misting sphagnum moss.
  • Give your gecko a rock, branches and plant leaves on the cool side for hiding. Add moistened moss to hiding spot on the warm side to aid healthy shedding.
