I love geckos and this one is just great, the only problem I have with them is that are so small compared with tegus. Btw, Happy B-Day! Now that's a present!

crested geckos are great

few years back I bred and raised hundreds of crested geckos

crested geckos the best geckos to keep and easy to breed. your set up looks awesome

good luck

Ooooh how I remember my 10 year old son begging me for a lizard last spring. I also remember telling him there was no way he could have a Tegu because of how big they grow. And yet here I am spending waaaaaay tooooo much time on this website because now we have a tegu and I worry about him as if I gave birth to him myself. I'm the mom in this house by the way.

Tell your mom I said you should have a tegu

Anyway, happy birthday, and congratulations on your gift. That is the cutest little thing I have ever seen. Except of course for Tegster when he first came home.

Now he is the handsomest thing I've ever seen. I have to update his gallery pics.
