We don’t have many spectacular looking native species here, but they are still amazingly cute nonetheless. Will get better pics. Here are some eggs incubating. I believe this is probably Gekko guishanicus, not 100% sure. Approx 5 hours old. [20240909_163336]

[image] Taiwan_Luthiers: No idea how it did it, but it did, and then when it finishes eating, it just carried on like nothing happened. What were you expecting it to do? Stick a hand up and ask for the check? Order dessert? :face_with_peeking_eye:

Was the book the Brothers Karamazov? (It’d make the story so much better if it was)

Wonderful animals. Watch then eating small insects, fighting over the bright spots- only problem is when one of them dies and falls off the wall and every now and them you see them on the floor with four paws splayed up.

We could be sticking geckos into random cars to help deal with pests as well as annoy wives, and helping them save on car insurance.

Next up, new hatchling. About 2 hours old, 38mm total length. I believe these eggs are Hemidactylus frenatus. 疣尾蝎虎 [20241002_030405] [20241002_030312]

Used to breed LOTS of phelsuma species. But that’s Madagascar bro, not Taiwan. I wish we had super colorful (native) geckos here in taiwan!!!

The geckos have moved to my bedroom. Luckily they are high enough that they could be “safe” from the cats…who so far only follow them with their gazes.

I heard cats can fly so they are never really safe… We call them Kitty Hawks…
