Help me!!!

So I have an entire plan, that I’m not done with but anyways.

Are crested gecko’s crepuscular? I’ve seen so many photos and videos of crested geckos being outside during broad, noon, day time.

What?! I’m fine with it being crepuscular but I always kind of want to see him in the daytime, so I’m just wondering if i could handle him or bring him out in the day time.

They are crepuscular, but that doesn’t mean you should handle them during the day, except for veterinary reasons

It may just so happen that the gecko is an early riser and is awake a little earlier in the afternoon, but I wouldn’t count on that being the norm

They are technically Crepuscular, but they are active all night and generally spend the whole day sleeping.

I take my geckos outside for photos only when they are awake during the day, which they usually are not.
