Mexican Banded Geckos

For a basic guide to care view the Mexican Banded Gecko Caresheet. For more detailed information select from the drop-down menus below

Mexican Banded Geckos (Coleonyx mitratus) originate from south-western United States and Mexico. They are more challenging to keep than leopard geckos, but fair very well in captivity under the right conditions. Although they are very closely related to leopard geckos, they vary dramatically in both environment and size, reaching an average length of 4 inches. Their environment differs in that they originate from a very humid environment, therefore moisture and a good supply of water is essential.
