How to Purchase a Gecko

Found the One? Here's What Happens Next.

Each gecko available from Kaleidoscope Geckos is individually listed with photos and information to help you find the right addition to your family or collection.

Because we are working with live animals, purchases are handled a little differently than a traditional online store. This allows us to confirm availability, calculate live-animal shipping, check weather conditions, and make sure everything is ready for your gecko's safe journey home.

1. Find Your Gecko

Browse our available Crested, Gargoyle, and Chahoua geckos.

Each available gecko has its own listing with photos and identifying information, including its name or reference number, species, sex when known, hatch date, weight, and other available details.

When you find a gecko you're interested in, make note of its name or reference number.

2. Send Us a Purchase Request

Ready to move forward? Contact Kaleidoscope Geckos with:

  • The gecko's name or reference number

  • Your name

  • Your email address

  • Your phone number

  • Your ZIP code

Your ZIP code allows us to calculate live-animal shipping and determine the safest delivery options for your location.

3. We'll Confirm Availability & Shipping

Once we receive your request, we'll confirm that your gecko is still available and calculate your shipping cost.

We'll also review current weather conditions and discuss any shipping considerations for your location.

If temperatures aren't safe for shipping, don't worry. Your gecko can remain in our care until an appropriate shipping window is available.

4. Reserve Your Gecko

Once availability and shipping have been confirmed, we'll provide the information you need to complete your purchase.

Your gecko is not considered reserved until the required payment or deposit has been received.

Payment plans may be available for qualifying purchases. Please contact us before submitting a deposit if you would like to discuss payment-plan options.

Before completing your purchase, please review our Terms of Purchase and Gecko Care Guide.

5. Schedule Safe Shipping

After your gecko has been paid for, we'll work with you to choose an appropriate shipping date.

Live-animal shipping is always weather dependent. We monitor conditions and reserve the right to postpone a shipment if temperatures or other circumstances could put your gecko at risk.

Depending on weather conditions and your location, your gecko may be shipped directly to you or held at an approved carrier location for pickup.

6. Welcome Your Gecko Home

We'll provide tracking information once your gecko is on the way.

Please be prepared to receive your gecko according to the delivery arrangements we've made together. Once your new gecko arrives, give them plenty of time to settle into their prepared habitat before beginning regular handling.

Have questions after your gecko arrives? We're here to help.
