Stowaway Gecko For Rehoming
This little one was handed in to us after accidentally traveling to the UK as a stowaway, and is now looking for a new home to settle in!

For rehoming in our Bracknell reptile shop
Possibly a Moorish Gecko (Tarentola mauritanica) - although exact species unknown
Age: Stowaway (originally from the wild), exact age unknown
Sex: Unknown
Handling: Best kept as a display species with very limited interaction to avoid stress
Diet: Mainly insectivorous
Suitability: Gecko keepers with some experience
Enclosure recommendations
Currently housed in a bioactive, live-planted glass terrarium with thermostatically controlled overhead heating and low-level UV lighting in a tropical-style habitat with lots of branches and coverage.
Seems to be doing well in this setup, so their new home should replicate this husbandry style.
Temperatures and humidity should be measured with a digital thermo-hygrometer for accuracy.
