Leopard geckos are one of the most popular pet lizard species, but there’s still a lot people don’t know about them. Rebecca of Leopard Gecko Talk is here to change that, and she’s using the power of social media to change the way leopard gecko owners care for them.

Rebecca is a content creator, who’s incredibly passionate about animals, especially reptiles and bugs, but leopard geckos are her absolute favorite. She was just ten when she bought her first gecko Gizmo in 2006, and they’ve been inseparable ever since.

After noticing the lack of accessible information about keeping leopard geckos as pets online, Rebecca decided to share her knowledge with the world. Her YouTube channel Leopard Gecko Talk was born in 2012, and it’s now followed by over 300,000 people.

Rebecca sees social media as a powerful outlet to connect with fellow reptile keepers and enthusiasts. Over a decade later, she’s one of the leading reptile YouTubers in the UK, and she’s using her platform to raise awareness about leopard geckos and share new information that comes to light.

Rebecca’s content is highly educational, so you’ll find a lot of tips and tricks on her channel if you’re considering adopting a leopard gecko. You’ll also find her videos incredibly relatable and funny if you’re already a seasoned leopard gecko owner.

Leopard geckos are one of the most popular lizard pet species, and it’s not difficult to see why. In addition to being adorable, these tiny creatures are truly fascinating, and these fun facts will inspire you to welcome one into your own home.

Eyelids

Most species of geckos lack eyelids, and a glassy transparent lens covers their eyes instead. This isn’t the case with leopard geckos, and this is one of the main characteristics that sets them apart from the other members of this species.

Interesting Tails

Leopard geckos’ tails might be the most interesting part of their anatomy. Like most geckos, they have the ability called autotomy, allowing their tails to regenerate when lost. To make the whole thing even more fascinating, their tails can store a significant amount of fat, and they can use them as both a food supply and a decoy against predators.

Bad Climbers

Unlike many other species of geckos, leopard geckos aren’t expert climbers. The lack of sticky lamellae makes it impossible for them to climb smooth vertical walls.

Replacing Their Teeth

Leopard geckos have 100 tiny teeth, and they don’t have to worry too much about keeping them in good shape. Their teeth are constantly replaced every three to four months due to a condition known as polyphyodonts.

Leopard geckos are one of the most fascinating species of lizards, and they make unexpectedly great pets. Goliath the Leopard Gecko is one of the most popular representatives of his species, and his videos on TikTok and Instagram attracted millions of views.

Goliath “Gogo” the Leopard Gecko was adopted by Ignatius “Iggy” Wirasakti in 2016 and he’s making him company during his time at college. His owner is a biology student and a passionate wildlife photographer, who mostly specializes in herpetology (reptiles and amphibians) and entomology (insects).

Goliath became a huge hit on TikTok after Wirasakti decided to open an account for him, and he’s now followed by 1.4 million people, while his videos attracted over 16 million likes. His adventures are a joy to watch, and he’s always in the mood for new shenanigans, even though he enjoys spending most of his time chilling inside his heat mat.

If you find Goliath adorable and wish you could have a pet just like him, we’ve got some good news for you. As far as pet lizards go, leopard geckos are the second most popular species, behind bearded dragons. They’re easy to find due to extensive captive breeding, and the fact that they can live up to 20 years makes them a pretty popular pet with people of all ages.
