When I moved into my new place, I was cleaning up the barn in back and managed to catch 3 house geckos. Well, they have since been gettin busy! Apparently 2 females and the male is tag teaming them both. The 2 females laid 2 eggs each about 2 months ago. I came home today and one was hatched and the other one just hatched (the little guy is still stuck to the egg!!!!). Pretty cool huh????? They are friggin tiny!

Long story but I raised a duck when I was a kid. I got him when he was only 8 hrs old, raised him up careful so I could release him back to the wild when he was old enough. Well he was a momma's boy so it took awhile but almost immediately these 2 girl ducks swam up and stuck to his side when I plopped him in this river. My duck was PIMP. Little effer immediately took up with 2 females laughing.gif I musta done something right! I felt conflicted but I couldn't help but feel a little pride at seeing him with his 2 girlfriends in tow.

CUTE baby lizard though!! I can't believe how teensy tinsy those eggs are!

Dude, those little Geckos are so cool...we have a bunch on our back pourch. Some of them are big and some of them just born. I leave the kitchen light on for like an hour late at night and they get on the window and eat bugs. Never thought about catching them lol but this way I don't have to clean cages or catch bugs icon_biggrin.gif

Chances are you will never catch them.....I just happen to have cat-like reflexes! Just kidding......you will never catch them when they are warm though. It was a fairly cold morning when I moved a big box. 3 of them were just sitting there and I scooped em right up. Now that they are in the cage, I dont think I could grab then if I tried.

Awww MAN!!! I just checked on them and the one in the pic above died overnight. His foot was still stuck to the egg but I figured it would get unstuck over night. Poor little guy is all dried up and dead.

My uncle is obsessed with catching lizards! He can't do it, he tries to be sneaky, he tries to be quick but he always ends up stepping on them WTH?! I don't know how he manages it but there is a 90% chance there will be squashed lizard rather than one in the hand.

Geckos are way cool.. have them all over my house at night eating the bugs..

I also have a Scaley, don't know the technical name for them but the big lizards with the blue chests. anyway, he has been in my front yard for a couple years now, he has gotten really big. Whenever you go out, he is always around, he stops and does his push ups, I think he is calling me out laughing.gifI tried to get him to meet me at the bike rack at 3:00 but he never showed. I think he has been getting bust also, there are at least 5 or more smaller ones running around now also..

lizards are the bomb..

The funny thing is, he actually is doing the pushups to flex on other lizards!

I call them " Blue bellys" since I was a kid and was told the light blue is female and dark blue is male.
