Red Striped
Gargoyle Gecko · 0 live listings
Red striped gargoyle geckos pair the striped pattern with red or rusty tones along the stripes and body. It is a line-bred look that takes time to color up, on a hardy gecko that eats a complete powdered diet with some insects.
At a glance
The tradeoffs, honestly
Red color often builds slowly over the first couple of years and may not reach the parents' intensity. Stripes can also break up with age.
Common questions
How red will it get?
Red usually deepens over the first year or two, but no one can promise the final shade. Photos of both parents as adults are the best guide.
Does diet change the color?
A good complete diet supports healthy color, but genetics sets the ceiling. Be wary of claims that a food will turn a gecko red.
What should I check for health?
A hatch record, a weight log and a clear fecal or crypto test on the colony. Look for a full body, straight hips and no bite wounds from cage mates.
