Crested Gecko (Correlophus ciliatus)

Crested geckos are one of the most popular lizard pets. Crested geckos are good pet lizards for both beginners and advanced keepers. Crested geckos are naturally found on the islands of New Caledonia, located near Australia and Fiji. Crested geckos are arboreal, meaning that they like climbing trees and shrubs in their natural environment. Crested geckos have sticky pads on their toes which allows them to climb smooth surfaces, including glass. Crested geckos are nocturnal and spend their time during the day in cover, being mostly inactive and hiding.
