Looking for a pet that's equal parts fascinating, low-maintenance, and adorable? Meet Drago, a Mediterranean House Gecko with a personality that's larger than his tiny size!

Mediterranean House Geckos are small, nocturnal lizards known for their large eyes, sticky climbing feet, and impressive insect-hunting skills. Native to warm climates around the Mediterranean region, these geckos have successfully made themselves at home in many parts of the world. In captivity, they can live 5-10 years or more with proper care, making them a rewarding long-term companion.

Drago spends his evenings exploring his habitat, climbing just about anything he can reach, and keeping a watchful eye out for his next meal. Like most geckos, he prefers observation over handling and is best appreciated as a fascinating display animal. Watching him navigate vertical surfaces and stalk insects is like having a miniature dinosaur right in your living room.

Mediterranean House Geckos thrive in a warm, secure enclosure with plenty of climbing opportunities, hiding spots, and moderate humidity. Their diet consists primarily of appropriately sized insects, making them an engaging pet for reptile enthusiasts of all experience levels.

Whether you're a first-time reptile keeper or a seasoned herpetology fan, Drago offers a unique opportunity to share your home with a tiny creature whose ancestors have been perfecting the art of climbing and hunting for millions of years.

If you're ready to welcome a little dragon into your life, Drago is waiting to meet you! Please come prepared with a photo ID.
