Juvenile Size Range: 4-10+ grams
Sex: *Unsexed
While crested geckos can be loupe-sexed at juvenile size, it's more art than science and becomes increasingly more conclusive the older/larger they get. Because of how much time it would take, we do not do so here. We've never had trouble being male-heavy due to how we incubate (cool), so we never experience or hear complaints of male heavy sex ratios.
- Generally speaking, this is the minimum size we recommend for the novice gecko keeper. Juveniles, compared to hatchlings, are tougher and more forgiving of minor husbandry errors, like exposure to less-than-ideal temperatures or humidity. This makes juveniles a good choice for end-customers who still want to raise a gecko from the time it's a "baby", as well as those who want the most bang for their buck in terms of price, while having a better idea of a gecko's adult coloration.
- At juvenile size, crested geckos can be more safely shipped, but you still need to keep them cool and well-hydrated in transit. We provide a damp paper towel in the shipping cups and use cold packs when necessary.
- If you're looking for geckos substantial enough in size to make a good display at shows, without having to grow them out for a few months, juveniles are a great option when available.
LIMITED WHOLESALE JUVENILE AVAILABILITY FOR 2026
Because of dips and subsequent spikes in demand, we have been sold out of juveniles for a considerable amount of time. I expect juvenile availability to be sporadic (at best) throughout the remainder of the 2026 calendar year and possibly into the spring of 2027. Any juveniles you see available here are not going to be a year-round offering and will be few and far between. I've left this section up mainly so that people will know what's going on. :-)
ABOUT ACR WHOLESALE
$49/55 FLAT RATE SHIPPING
One shipping charge covers an unlimited number of geckos/orders for a single shipment. Feel free to order additional geckos and choose "Ship with Existing Order" to avoid paying shipping again (only if you've already paid shipping on an order that has not yet been shipped).
1 WEEK MINIMUM ADVANCE SCHEDULING REQUIRED
Because of the volume of orders/geckos we deal with, all wholesale orders are scheduled at least one full week in advance. When weather dictates, lead times may be extended. If you need geckos sooner than that, we may be able to facilitate that for you, but please check with Anthony before placing your order. Under no circumstances do we offer refunds because of shipping delays due to weather.
3 GRADES OF WHOLESALE CRESTED GECKOS
1 - COMMON MORPHS
Every breeder is going to produce a smaller proportion of plainer, lower gene-count geckos, simply as a byproduct of the genetic odds game that we're playing. For every 1-in-8 three-gene genetic combo you hatch, you will also hatch a gecko that inherited zero of those three genes - that's how genetic odds work. Those plainer geckos are what you will see referred to as common morphs. These geckos often sell out very quickly to pet shop distributors, due to their low price and the fact that we (intentionally) don't produce very many.
Recommended For: Pet Shops, Reptile Shows
2- HIGH-END MORPHS
These are geckos that would have been cutting edge several years ago, and in many cases are still selling for hundreds of dollars as adults. These geckos are still very high quality geckos by today's standards, many will develop our trademark structure, but they're just no longer highly sought-after by serious hobbyists and breeders.
Recommended For: Pet Shops, Reptile Shows
3. ULTRA HIGH-END MORPHS
These are choice geckos from some of our newest projects, which are referred to as Ultra High-End. These geckos become available in surplus in cases where we might have better than expected luck with a particular project or gene, or we just produced too many from a particular project at a particular time (usually due to seasonality). If you're a breeder, this is a great way to add to your own projects and offer a better/bigger selection to your customers by selling off what you don't need. This grade is our most popular seller to serious gecko breeders.
