hello all, I need some advice about Tokay Geckos. I have read many online care sheets and found contradictory information. I have many reptiles (11 snakes and 2 skinks) but have never had Tokay Geckos before but I really want one!
Here are my questions:
1) Can I house a single individual in a 10 gal glass cage? If so, would it be good to stand it on its end to give more height?
2) do they need UVA or UVB lighting? I have read both on care sheets; some say they are nocturnal thus don't need UVB, which makes since to me. Many have tried to tell me that my snakes need UVB, which is false, so I don't know which is true about these guys.
3) Can you all give me some misc. tips to keeping them?
Thanks in advance!!
