Geckoes Geckoes Geckoes

Yep 3 of them.

Picked them up the other night from a very nice engineering student who apparently did not want them anymore (not sure if that was his choice or his nice new girlfriend's...).

anyways these critters came in their very own apartment a 3 foot long by 2 foot wide by 1 foot high structure with little caves, logs, plastic jungle growth and even a calming pond. Minuit could live in that thing its so huge.

C & M are pretty happy about them - C owns the littlest one, M owns the middle sized one (which is the smartest), and apparently no one owns the largest. C loves to hold them and feed them. they eat mealworm bugs (or whatever the adult is called). C catches them with chopsticks and shows them to the gecko who grabs it off the chopstick. who knew chopstick handling ability would come in so handy.

We had to go out and buy more meal worms yesterday to restock the mealworm box - apparently all one needs to do is add rolled oats and pieces of fruit or vegetable and away they go. I think they are called inky, dinky and catie (M didn't like parlez vous) but could be wrong on this one.
