Who knew the difference?? Giving a tortoise too much water can give them a respiratory infection from getting water in their lungs! Not giving a turtle enough water can dehydrate them!

Gold Dust Day Geckos (Phelsuma Laticauda) are perfect for beginner keepers who are looking for a beautiful yet easy gecko! In my opinion, they are one of the most vibrant and attractive geckos in the world! Gold Dust Geckos are found in northern Madagascar and Tanzania but can be found in Pacific Islands where forests are humid. You may spot them residing in palms and banana trees. Feeding on various insects and nectar from flowers, they are considered a hardy, resilient, and low maintenance gecko!

You’ll notice their dazzling pattern above, some small yellow dots on their upper back and neck, hence the “gold dust” name! They also have 3 orange stripes across their heads and red ones on the lower body. Stunning blue surrounds their eyes and toes! Gold dust day geckos are an arboreal species that hunt for food during the day. (Day gecko = diurnal) They spend most of their day on treetops, so be sure to obtain an arboreal enclosure for them!

As much as possible, you should avoid handling them. You should only handle them when you are moving enclosures. Remember that day geckos are very fast and can escape very easily. These geckos can drop their tails and even shed pieces of their skin if they feel threatened or stressed.

Care Tips:

-The minimum recommended enclosure size for a single gold dust day gecko is 12’’ x 12’’ x 18’’ (strongly recommend larger than the minimum). (Reptizoo – Reptile Glass Terrarium - https://undergroundreptiles.com/product/reptizoo-reptile-glass-terrarium/)

-All reptiles are cold blooded, meaning they need to move between areas of different temperatures to regulate their body temperature. Basking Area Temperatures should be around 90 degrees F. General temperatures should be around 80 – 89 degrees F. With warmest temps at the top and cooler temps at the bottom.

-*Warning* Day Geckos are known to climb upside down on the mesh on top of the enclosure, which makes them susceptible to burns. To prevent this, use a lamp stand to suspend the lamp over the enclosure.
