In 2008, the boy (Kyle) REALLY wanted a pet, but Chris and I were leary about him actually taking care of it. We looked around and found some 'eyelash' geckos at Petco and ended up bringing one home. Found out they are extremely easy pets and fun to watch (once the sun goes down).
They were thought to be extinct until 're-discovered' in 1993. Average size is 8-10 inches long and lifespan is thought to exceed 15 years. Easy to keep preferring 65-80 degree temps, they require no special UV lighting.
I ended up getting a female a few months later and now have quite the little gecko family. I am always looking for homes for the little guys that I have so take a look at pictures and let me know if you are interested.

Another Baby
Had another baby hatch yesterday... well kind of... he kinda stayed in the egg for quite a while so I coaxed him out. Pictures will come soon (when I can get him to sit still long enough for a picture)
