Looks like a rubber toy!

Only winding you up she looks lovely

 

[Gweglez]

i just love the way she sticks to anything/everything. I've never seen her on the floor tbh!

Isn't that large for a gecko?
I always thought they were really small!

Must be a well fed gecko

Amazing colouring!
Looks like a ninja

 

[Fisher]

Can you handle her
Take her out? Pet? and such?

Well she is a giant day gecko! But yeah agrreed, she's really pretty i think she's about 10 inches atm and might grow to 12

unfortuantely she's really fragile and her skin rips easily. If i let her/took her out by hand she'd leap right out and go on the ceiling

That is really cool dude. I always used to want an iguana. My brother did 3 years at college studying exotic animals and they had lots of big lizards.

iv never seen one of them tho thats amazing!!

 

[Gweglez]

thank you she is really cute and active now that she's settled in

got these pics just now

 

[thesilencer1987]

I actually want one!!!

Are they expensive to buy?

 

[Gweglez]

i got a bargain cos they werent selling in the shop i got it from. mine was £20 but they range from 65-80, a decent sized vivarium is about 50, plus 22 for the uvb bulb, a tenner for a heat mat, then plants and logs so far ive spent around £20

 

[thesilencer1987]

Thats not too bad, think after the summer is over and i've saved up a bit i might get one.

What is the routine for feeding etc?

 

[Gweglez]

3-4 medium/large locusts 3 times a week, for me works out to be £2.50 a week or so

that's for an adult tho. juveniles and babies obviously need smaller ones and they need feeding more often

 

[MrAndy979]

on my lepord gecko i miz it up abit...one week i have locusts, then i have crickets,then i have have meal worms!

 

[Gweglez]

yeah i used to get crickets but they just hide under things and make it hard for her to catch them

 

[Scott Murphy]

Seeing these pics are making me really think about an Iguana again! Really cool Greg mate.

That's an amazing pet, love the colour. How on earth do they manage to climb up the surface of the box, it all looks shiny.

 

[Gweglez]

they have like stupidly sticky feet it's just little hooks that come out really but they seem to be able to turn it off for the floor, if only tyres were this sticky

I think with geckos, it has something to do with electrical pulses???
