Setup
The numbers
Thermal gradient
Day: a real gradient, 28–30°C warm against 25–27°C cool, so the animal chooses. Night: 20–24°C.
Why
Same scale on every sheet here, so two species compare by eye.
The sheet stateswarm 28-30 °C / cool 25-27 °C / night 20-24 °C
Humidity
The sheet stateshumidity lined day geckos do best in a moderate- to high-humidity environment, with an average humidity of 50-80% as measured by a digital probe hygrometer with the probe placed in the middle of the enclosure.
UVB
The sheet statesas a rough estimate, to provide appropriate uvb to a lined day gecko, you will need one of the following lamps, depending on the enclosure's height: 26w zoo med reptisun 5.0 — 2-4" / 5-10cm 18" zoo med t8 reptisun 5.0 — 2-4" / 5-10cm 18" arcadia t8 forest 6% — 2-4" / 5-10cm arcadia shadedweller arboreal kit ...
Traceable. The figures above appear in the page we cite, which we opened on 10 Aug 2026. That means you can check them, not that we have confirmed they are right. reptifiles.com
Drag the sun. The sheet states a night temperature, so the rail follows it.
Enclosure and conditions
What your climate adds
This sheet states a range to hold. Your local climate decides how much work holding it is. Pick the nearest city: nothing is sent anywhere, the choice stays in this browser.
What it needs
Every line above is deduced from a value this sheet states, and names which one. Nothing here is a general recommendation. What the sheet does not state is listed too, rather than left out: a kit that looks complete is worse than one that names its gap.
Food
Diet
Feeding rhythm
Twenty-eight days, one row. Each band is a meal window. The sheet gives several ages on one line; this is the adult figure.
Why
The windows widen as they go because the interval is a range: four meals after a 10–14 day cycle land anywhere between day 40 and day 56.
The sheet stateshow often lined day geckos need to eat depends on age: juveniles (0-6 months) — insects daily, cgd every other day subadults and adults (>6 months) — insects 2x/week, cgd 1x/week crested gecko diet (cgd) must be offered via a wall-mounted feeding ledge, not placed on the ground.
The species
Identity
CITES II is a global listing and holds in every country. National law is not global, and we hold no national wildlife law for any country, Thailand included. Check your own authority before buying or selling.

What this sheet states
This sheet states 5 of 7 of the fields this product runs on. What is missing turns something off: enclosure size audit, day/night engine and awake count on the globe. We show the gap rather than fill it with a plausible number.
UVB is measured but does not count: it is absent from 420 of 678 sheets, and on most of them that is not a gap, since a nocturnal snake's sheet has no reason to state a UV index. Counting it would call the library incomplete without cause.
