Because the species is a strong, sometimes unpredictable jumper, many keepers handle them low over a soft surface or their lap, and cup rather than grip, to reduce the chance of injury if the gecko leaps or is sta…

Some keepers combine both to create a fuller thermal gradient with both belly heat and ambient warmth, while others rely on one or the other depending on room temperature..

Keepers in unusually cool climates or rooms may still add gentle supplemental warmth, but it isn't a default requirement the way it is for many reptile species..

It's common for a gecko to stay hidden and eat less for the first one to two weeks in a new home while it settles in, rather than a sign that something is wrong..

Aim for roughly 72-78°F (22-26°C), with a warm end up to about 80-82°F. Sustained temperatures above about 85°F are dangerous. Most homes need no supplemental heat source at all.

Animal Diversity Web notes that eggs held at higher incubation temperatures develop faster than those at lower temperatures, consistent with the long 60-150 day hatch window seen in captivity..
