Looking at keeping a pair of Geckos :)
I love how they look and really want to keep one. What would be a good one to start with? I want something that is cheap and easy to maintain. What do you think would be a good species to keep? would prefer something that requires very little maintenance...

Sorry no photo but this morning picking up some scrap tin to take to the dump I happened upon a tiny Gecko. It was between 2 and 3 inches long, very dark, either black or very dark brown, and was covered in white spots. Very very cute. Can someone tell me which one it is please?
HI
im setting up a tub for a new yearling and I came across the husk of coconut shell, thought it might make a good hide. They are used for rodents so its been treated. My only concern was the natural dust on it, would this cause respiratory issues?
thanks

so my beardie dropped 21 eggs this morning, she seemed a bit fatter and was not eating much the last 2 weeks i assumed it was because i feed her heaps to bulk her up for winter and that she was brumating so had gone off food.
but she laid 21 eggs this morning, which i was not expecting so soon...
Hey all, went out west for a few days, spending two days at the Little Desert and one at the Grampians. The weather was looking very overcast and freezing cold when I arrived at Little Desert. Nothing was basking and flipping only revealed a Shingeback, an Obscure Skink and a Marbled Gecko...
I was feeding one of my baby Marbled geckos (Christinus marmoratus) very small crickets and it regurgitated it up.
Is this anything to be concerned about?

Just thought I'd show off some of the photos i've taken of local, SA herps over the past ten or so years. I am not a photographer - don't expect perfect photos. This is by far, not everything I have seen but these show some of the animals where I managed to have a camera (not a great one I might...
During the summer my band went on our 1st Australian Tour.
In my spare time I met up with a few friends from interstate and did a days herping.
Also, if you're into Metal, check out Eternal Rest.
First we hit up Vic. After playing a sweet gig a mate of mine who recently went to FNQ with me...
i will probably be getting a gecko soon enough, leaning towards a barking gecko, but just want to see what other people say about whats best i would prefer an easier kept species, would like a arboreal species but don't care if its terrestrial, and one that doesn't need much heating/lighting or...
Hey guys, just wondering if I could get an I.D. on this little fella.
My partner found him in a rolled up magazine that had been in our mailbox for a few days, we live in Melbourne's inner west.
Unfortunately it appears as though his back legs are paralyzed but his tail has movement in it.

Hey guys,
My brother & I have just found this lizard at our work (construction site) and we brought it home and we want to know what type of creature it is?

Hey guys,
So as you know I have had a Marbled gecko egg layed from my female about 2 months ago. and now when I candle it (not rotating it in the process) the baby in the egg is moving ever so slowly, is this normal?
Hey Guys
I have a gecko egg at the moment, and when a candle the egg its a pinky/orange colour with these like red blood vessels (not sure if they are blood vessels). It has a dimple on the top don't know if that means anything. I wanted to know if that means its a good egg or not.
Any help...
Hi, on Sunday I purchased two Marbled Geckos, Piggy and George. They are wee little babes, but seem to be growing quickly. We were told briefly how to care for them, but I'd be really grateful for some general tips to help me look after them properly. We were told to feed them 'every couple of...

Both of my marbled geckos died yesterday morning, I'm thinking it's because of the redness. It actually seems like there is tiny cuts there aswell. Any ideas on why they died? THANKS.
I used to keep marbles geckoes when I was a little kid and now thinking if getting some.
Just one thing...
Should I get a long tank or a high one?
I'm not sure but I remember they do have sticky feet.
Thanks
Hi all,
My female marbled gecko laid two eggs, I was wondering how do I look after them. What temp do I keep them at? Is there any specific side to have them on? Do they need humidity? And how long will it take before they hatch?:D
Hi, I was wondering if my gecko's poo color is normal or not! One piece of poop is white and black and another is white, black and grey. Help would be appreciated :)

Hi all,
I am in the process of doing market research which requires me to estimate how many lizards/snakes/frogs etc. are being kept privately. It is all good and well to find the official numbers but as everyone knows, there are a percentage of people who either have a license and keep other...

I am thinking some geckos. I have kept dragons and pythons for about 5-6 years so I have some experience.
