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.

Growing up!

Atticus... then and now!

Atticus is named after his owner, Atticus Fox Hiestand (what a cool name, eh?).  He is a family friend and his parents got the gecko for him as a holiday gift.  Since we are Facebook friends I get to see updated pics on occasion. (Thank you, Fox!)  The second one here was just posted this weekend!  I can't believe how big he's getting.
