	Day Gecko: WhoZoo
		Geckos are typically found in a milder climate with an average temperature of 65 degrees F, and with a 50 - 85% humidity level.
		The majority of the day geckos are not threatened, however, there are a few species that are threatened, and there is one species that is endangered.
		Geckos wiggle back and forth when they walk because of the fact that in order to lift their foot from the wall surface, it must curl each toe upward from the front to "unhook" its villosities.

		Day geckos of the genus Phelsuma are different from other geckos for several reasons.
		Lighting should be controlled by a timer and varied seasonally from 14 hours per day during the summer to 10 hours per day during the winter, along with a small temperature drop for three or four months in winter.
		The main staple of a day gecko's diet is insects, which include crickets, waxworms, waxmoths, wingless fruitflies, and flies.

	BBC - h2g2 - Captive Care and Breeding of Day Geckos
		Something that is characteristic of day geckos, as well as most other species of gecko, is that they lack movable eyelids and instead use their tongues to clean their eyes.
		Day geckos are best housed in a very large aquarium, but other geckos with non-adhesive toe pads or larger lizards without 'sticky' feet fair better in sliding glass chipboard cupboards or a aquarium.
		The temperature during the day should be 26-32° C and drop at night to around 18-22° C. You should use a thermometer to monitor the different temperature levels in the enclosure; it’s best to measure the temperature in different places.

	Day Geckos - Care In Captivity
		Day geckos are one of the most visually spectacular lizards that can be kept successfully in captivity.
		It should also be mentioned that Day Gecko bred in captivity are mostly by hobbyists who have taken the time to study these geckos at length, almost to the neglect of all other herps.
		Day geckos are, as the name suggests, mainly active during daylight hours and dusk, which makes them ideal to observe in a captive environment.

		Madagascar ocelot geckos (Paroedura pictus) are nocturnal terrestrial geckos from the dry regions in southern Madagascar (Henkel and Schmidt, 1995).
		Sex is determined in mature geckos by the presence of hemipenile bulges in males, obviously absent in the females.
		In the winter, Roborowski's gecko is accustomed to hibernation, so gradually lower winter temperatures to 50 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit for a three-month period, then gradually warm the geckos in the spring.

		As for your young gecko, a ten gallon tank is sufficient to raise it in until it reaches reasonable size.

		Since day geckos are arboreal, you will rarely see one on the ground in a substrate.
		You don't have to worry too much about soaking the substrate, a day gecko will rarely be on the ground to be in it, and it will keep the humidity up.
		I don't know of anything on day geckos in particular, but Reptile Rooms has a large gecko owner population, but most of those are leopard and crested geckos, but I'm sure there are other species in respresentation as well.

		In many sections there is some over generalization of information, but for the beginning gecko keeper this may be helpful to get a basic overview.
		There are only 13 species accounts which cover only a small fraction of the over 66 species and subspecies of Phelsuma Day Geckos.
		Several of the accounts cover species that are extremely rare that most beginning Day Gecko keepers would never see or keep.

		Hi All - I have few Giant Day geckos, but I haven't mated any of them yet.
		I saw that he was staring at her (I think), and I am wondering if this changing of color was because he was attracted to her or was it territorial?
		I am inclined to think it was territorial because he turned a dark color, which they do when they are stressed, but I really have no idea.
