Mourning Gecko sub adult

Hatchlings
  • All mourning geckos are female. In fact, the name “mourning gecko” comes from the assumption that they were “in mourning” over the loss of their mates when they were first discovered.
  • Mourning geckos don’t all look the same. Despite the fact that mourning geckos are essentially clones of one another, they do demonstrate some genetic diversity. Patterns tend to vary based on locale (for example, a Hawaiian mourning gecko will look different from a South American mourning gecko).
  • Mourning geckos do not have eyelids, so they clean and moisten their eyes with their tongue.
  • Mourning geckos can climb vertical surfaces. Like most geckos, this is thanks to thousands of tiny “hairs” on their toe pads called setae.
  • A mourning gecko can regrow her tail if it gets cut/bitten off.
