About A&Y Geckos
Our Story
Our collection
Breeding Goal
My name is Yueyi, but you can also call me Alex!
I currently live and work near Frankfurt am Main, Germany, with my partner Yang.
I’ve kept reptiles since I was 14, and in 2020, I got into New Caledonian Geckos — later introducing Yang to the reptile world too!
Together, we now selectively breed Crested Geckos and Gargoyle Geckos, producing healthy, beautiful animals.

Our collection
Breeding Goal
First and foremost, we breed geckos driven by passion, not market trends. Our focus is solely on what we genuinely love.
Crested Geckos
We specialize in Tri-color extreme Harleqiuns and White Wall Pinstripes/Quad-stripes — prioritizing exceptional structure, especially my personal favorite: well-defined, broad heads.
Gargoyle Geckos
Our core projects center on high-expression Blood Stripes and vibrant Red/Orange Blotch morphs.

Pair & Incubation
As hobbyist breeders, we maintain intentionally small collections. Every gecko is carefully selected based on rigorous criteria, with most boasting well-documented lineage. I meticulously track the ancestry of all our breeding animals.
We refuse to pay inflated prices for "top-tier" individuals, as bloodline potential ≠ guaranteed outcomes. Instead, we focus on discovering synergistic pairings through hands-on breeding — identifying duos that consistently produce superior offspring.
True excellence comes from understanding genetics through practice, not price tags.

We give equal love to all of our geckos. They live in our living room, with suitable temperatures from 20℃ to 24℃.
The feeding schedule for Adults and Subadults is:

For Hatchlings and babies, we feed them Gecko Nutrition every day until 6 grams, then feed them cricket every Saturday.
