Here is the most detailed list, complete with picture examples, that we could come up with to define the current morphs of the crested gecko world. Hope everyone finds this helpful & enjoyable!

Sometimes breeders, ourselves included, give a title such as “Xander Mardi Gras” or “Dirty Line” to describe a particular group of geckos. Titles like these are used to describe Projects, not Morphs. So why do we do it? To cause mass confusion? To make a gecko seem fancier so we can bump up the price? Not quite. Project titles can be a very useful tool…not just to the breeders, but to our customers as well. Read on to find out why we title our Projects, how Projects are different than Morphs, and how all of this info can help you to select that perfect gecko!

A Guide To The Structural Traits Of Crested Geckos – Its pretty common knowledge that crested geckos come in a wide variety of colors and patterns. But did you know they also come in a variety of shapes & sizes? People often ask me about the structure of crested geckos – What makes a gecko “crowned”? What does an “upturned crest” look like? What does the term “gator head” mean?

Here’s a fun picture guide to some of their structural qualities.

Your crested gecko may have some “quirks” or behaviors that seem rather odd…or even down right alarming. These are some of the most common questions I get from new crested gecko owners. Hopefully the answers here will prevent a “freak-out” before it starts!

It may happen from time to time that your gecko’s shed will not be complete. If your gecko has tiny bits of shed stuck to his toes, tail tip, or other parts of his body, he may need your help to remove it. With about 15 minutes and some common household items, you can have your gecko looking like new again!
