Introduction

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.

First Hatchlings

The first hatchlings were dubbed Aticus and Marvin.  I was a little nervous that I wouldn't be able to keep them alive, but as I have read everywhere, it was VERY easy.  If you keep them watered and food available they pretty much take care of themselves.
