He's a lot cooler looking than the grey dingy-looking ones we have here.

[millworkman]

Hey AJ, you want to catch a couple of those and send them my way? They are beautiful little guys.

The ones you have there are also pretty loud and annoying.

[AlabamaJack]

I don't know much about geckos other than they eat spiders and stuff...

The wife has already warned me...."leave them alone"...

I'll bet she's afraid you'll put hot sauce on them and eat em.... hehe

Cool looking lizard man. Here in Florida, we have so many kinds, I can't keep up with them. I've never seen one like that though. I like it's eyes. It looks well fed too. Fat little belly on em.

Yes they certainly are. AJ, does that gecko make a lot of noise?

[AlabamaJack]

haven't noticed any noise, but then again, I don't know what to listen for...I will have to check it out...

Listen close enough, you'll hear them. They usually talk all about how Geico could save you loads of money on your car isurance....they have a British accent too for some reason.....

Here they sound like the sound you make hitting your tongue off of the roof of your mouth. Like a loud chirping.

[HotPeppersFlyFishing]

That one you have there AJ is a Mediterranean Gecko
introduced into the SW U.S.A very cool little buggers
I was manager of the reptile dept of an exotic pet store
for a while 10 yrs back cool little buggers sold a ton
of those they do make noise but hard to say what it sounds
lile kinda like a low bark crossed with a frog croak :)

[talas]

BAH! Same thing. :rolleyes: :lol:

to my aussie cousins it isnt and to mine :shocked::flamethrower::

[talas]

o no you got my daughter wanting one now...:(

[AlabamaJack]

Sorry Talas...but you gotta go get a couple....as you see, they are really cool...but you gotta tell her that this pet belongs in the garden so they can make more little ones...

The first thing I thought of was......wonder what they taste like!!:shocked::lol:..........Seriously, though I agree they are pretty cute little buggers.

[Chiliac]
