Gordon Gekko!!

Had this really cool gex living at my wifes house in southern leyte phillippines,i called him gordon and would watch him moving around at night.These large voracious gekkos are extremely vocal and can be heard long distances with the call Tokai hence the name tokay gekko.These giant gex are also found in buildings over water like the Happy Dove marine garden and just about every where else.,what a place for herps.

RE: Gordon Gekko!!

Oldfella,
I have kept Tokay's before in the UK, they have a nasty bite on them, like little bulldogs that don't let go!
Beautifully coloured gecko's, mauve with red dots.

Gordon Geckko

Yeh sherms they are noisy for sure the asian house gex like browns has they are all over and made toc toc sound from memory,also saw the parthenogenic lugubris a couple of times.Yes they bite like the holy clappers neil gordon bit me when i caught him at night and the locals laughed as he dangled from my hand like a tassy devil.The one ime holding in pic with mouth agape bit me the mongrel after the pic taken in the mountains.Caught the little biter in a old hut and there was quite a few in there,one was a giant gex there was old egg casings stuck to the walls in a few spots,the juvs were fond and were more brightly coloured with cream white bands on there tails.
