|  | Buying Male Central! Subscriber | Join Date: Jan-08 Location: Hornsby Age/Gender: 17  | | | I went into my outside room to continue building my new 4ft enclosure, and found this little guy. This may be common for you guys, but it is the first reptile i have seen in my area for a long time! 2nd gecko i have ever seen in my life. I put him in my show case tank and took some photos. then placed him back, he was suprisingly tame, i didnt pick him up i put my hand next to him and he crawled on. Is that normal? are they usually this placid??
I didn't pick him up because i know they are frail and easy drop their tails.
Thought i would share!!!!!!!

Nah, not me, keeping it would be the worst thing, i am not at all experienced in geckos, the little thing would probably die in my captivity, that, and the fact that its illegal
