I realize that they have "free range" in the wild but as I stated, It makes it easier for feeding, cleaning and actually observing them when you house juveniles in smaller enclosures. And I have successfully bred & raised Tokays for over a decade using smaller cages.



I'm not saying you can’t put a group of juvenile Tokays in a 5 1/2' tall 3' wide and 4' deep cage. You can do what ever you like, and Tokays are very hardy geckoes that will probably do just fine. But it would be hard to observe them in that size enclosure. Not to mention it’s much easier to monitor each one's feeding habits. In a group of juveniles you might have a few that dominate when it comes to feeding time so others might not get the same amount of insects or become timid of the larger more aggressive cage mates. And the first year of life, it is very important that these geckoes receive proper nutrition.



I hope that clarifies it some.
