Crested geckos probably lack the pigments to produce blue colors, unlike the more flashy Day Geckos (Phelsuma spp.) or the Electric Blue Gecko (Lygodactylus williamsi).

The closest we have are olive, which is really a combination of brown and yellow in the color spectrum, and so-called lavender, which is more of a slate grey.

The spiny-tailed iguana, another species sometimes kept, reaches on average 3 feet. Desert iguanas reach about 1 1/2 feet long, while Grand Cayman blue iguanas reach 4 1/2 feet long. Pet gecko species rarely exceed 12 inches long. Frog-eyed geckos come in at about 5 inches long, while the giant day geckos reach around 12 inches.

Bicolor crested geckos are generally patternless but with a slightly darker – sometimes lighter – color on their dorsal (top of head and back). Bi-color is usually seen in red, orange, olives and buckskins. Some bicolors have a hint of a pattern on the dorsal, but lack the cream of flame morphs (see below).
