    I know! I love that target!

    So... male or female? I should probably get that checked on! I didn't think males had calcium stores, but anyway...

    Oh okay, thanks So we all know, I'm generally hopeless at sexing geckos!

    Anyone else beg to differ?

    Hehe, yes they're a little average... but this one in particular was my very first gecko. My other two live in with the thicktails

    They're both Christinus marmorata, they can vary a fair bit.
