Like the leopard gecko (Eublepharis macularius), the fat-tailed gecko, is a true eyelid gecko. From the family Gekkonidae and the subfamily
Eublepharinae, the Hemitheconyx caudicinctus, or Fat-tailed gecko, is very similar in shape and size to the leopard gecko. But it is adapted to a far
different life-style. It is a relatively docile animal, more shy and with different behavior patterns toward humans than the leopard gecko. A new owner
may cause the animal some distress, but upon becoming used to to its owner, the Fat-tailed gecko is usually content to rest on a hand or arm. [ eng ] |
