Description: An adult Crested Gecko measures between 4 and 4.5 inches in the body, with an additional 3 to 4 inches in tail length. There is no significant difference in size between males and females. They have large triangular heads, protruding eyes with crests that look like eyelashes and flat webbed feet. The pads on their feet are covered in protrusions called lamellae which help them grip to most surfaces. There are currently 37 recognized Crested Gecko morphs, however, since this species were only rediscovered less than 30 years ago, private breeders are constantly producing new color and pattern combinations. Morphs describe the color, patterns or combination of color and pattern. For example, Patternless Cresties display shades of red, yellow, orange and buckskin plus others in between. Tigers exhibit similar body colors but with patterns akin to tiger stripes. Some tiger morphs show only faint stripes, whereas others show much darker stripes, also known as ‘brindled’ or ‘super tigers’.
