The Tokay gecko is one of the coolest looking of any species of gecko. Captive bred Tokay geckos for sale are bright and colorful and known for their “energetic” personalities! If you are looking for a flashy looking gecko, with lots of color, this is probably it. These are bright and energetic but also can be tougher to handle than other species of pet gecko.

The Tokay gecko is around 2″ as a hatchling, however once fully mature can reach sizes of 6-8″ overall from head to tail.
Tokay gecko diet
We feed our baby geckos a staple of crickets and sometimes horn or wax worms. Our tokays are used to interacting with our staff who feeds them daily, so they will be a tad more docile than your common wild caught specimens.
Tokay Gecko Price
The cost or Tokay gecko price really will be based on the age and if it is a wild caught adult or a captive bred specimen. You see, buying captive bred animals is all that we would work with or recommend here at CB.
We are against purchasing wild caught animals because of a few reasons. They typically are going to be fairly “mean” if wild caught and not used to human interaction. In addition we never truly would know their age, only would have to estimate it. Lastly, wild caught specimens more often than not contain parasites that can be transmitted to your other geckos or reptiles.
Tokay Gecko Cost
Overall these are reasonably priced geckos compared to most other species. The Tokay gecko cost will be under $500.00 but normally hovers between $199 and $499 depending on the age of the gecko. Keep in mind that wild caught geckos will always be much cheaper but are not recommended for the reasons discussed above.
