Welcome to GiantGeckos.com

Giant Gecko
Rhacodactylus l. leachianus - Grand Terre Type C

Giantgeckos.com maintains the biggest and most diverse colony of Rhacodactylus leachianus, the largest of the living geckos. We thus offer the largest selection of this species, accurately represented as to origins. This year, we will also be distributing some of the Frank Fast lines of leachianus, which are descendants of different founder stock than ours. These will be identified in our available listings.

If you are contemplating buying or breeding giant geckos or other species of Rhacodactylus, we highly recommend that you purchase our book Rhacodactylus: A Complete Guide to their Selection and Care. It is packed with photos and detailed information on care and breeding. Go to Books for more info.

Leachianus
In addition to pure morphotypes, you can expect vigorous Grande Terre x henkeli hybrids, including F2 animals and Duu Ana (Island I) henkeli hybrids. To date Duu Ana when bred to each other produce no or few viable offspring.

As always, pure Grande Terre Yate type A , and Grande Terre Type C x A will be limited and more than half of our expected production for 2010 is already pre-sold.

For those who are wondering about ongoing projects, we are working on establishing a xanthic (high yellow) line of type A Grande Terre leachianus, type C Grande Terre leachianus, type C x type A Grande Terre leachianus, and a line of select high white Isle of Pines crosses (in cooperation with Allen Repashy).
