Facts:

• Leopard Geckos are one of the few gecko species with movable eyelids, allowing them to blink and close their eyes while sleeping.
• They come in a huge variety of color morphs, making them one of the most diverse reptiles in the hobby.
• Unlike many geckos, they have dry, bumpy skin and lack sticky toe pads, so they stay grounded rather than climbing glass.
