Gecko Identification

[Erin]

Hi All,

Is someone able to tell me what type of gecko this guy is?

thanks!

Where was it found :?: It always helps to know the general locality to id it.

The second specimen is not a gecko but a bearded dragon.

It looks like a southern spotted velvet gecko, I hope you let it go

 

[Saz]

Looks like an Oedura tryoni or Oedura coggeri. I don't keep any Oedura at the moment so not very informed on that genus. I'm sure others will be able to be more specific!!

Zen I think the last pic is erin's signature...

Oedura tryoni

Thanks all, thats what I thought, its not a wild caught specimen Jordo so don't worry :lol: , I purchased it a while ago and saw some recent pics of southern spotteds which looked quite different and just wanted to make sure I had the right species. I didnt want to mention this before as I thought it might influence the result.
It appears much lighter than others can anyone tell me why this is?

Thanks again.

I am quite aware the second specimen is a beardie. She's called Goblin.

Genetic variation, probably the reason why I'd look nothing like you :lol: also geckos can turn darker or lighter for temperature regulation or camoflage.
Sorry for the accusation, I presumed you caught it and didn't know what it was

Just having fun . Playing with the ambiguity of the context of your signature.

Lovely little Beardy by the way. What species is it :?:



That's an unusual tryoni. I've never seen one so pale before?
Do you know the geographic origins of it's bloodline?

 

[jordo]

Heres some I had, they all looked different from each other

 

[zen]

Wow Jordo
It's hard to believe that it's the same species.

Great looking geckos 8)

Erin sometimes they pop up like that, kinda like hypos, hardly any dark background colour.I found one like that in my yard, different to the rest in the area.

Shes Pogona Vitticeps. I purchased her off beknluke in December last year. She's very loved - thanks for the good feedback on her!
