 What
exactly is a leopard gecko anyways?
| |
- Unlike other gecko species, leopard geckos can
actually live a long time. Under ideal
captive conditions, leopard geckos can live up to and
over 20 years, with males typically living longer than
females.
- Hatchling leopard geckos are approximately 3-3.5
inches in length and typically weigh around 3grams.
- On average, adult leopard geckos are just over 8
inches in length and typically weigh around
45-60grams. Of course, there are always exceptions
to these rules (such as Dr. Gecko himself who is 12.5
inches and 121grams!).
- Hatchling leopard geckos grow very quickly and can
reach full adult size by 18 months of age!
