    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Great pics! :)

I need to start playing with my new camera, see if I can take some closeups.
 
i love the back legs and skin pictures the best!!!!! and now cody did you HAVE to take a close up pic of his maleness????
 
Nice shots Cody. I don't even wanna know why you included the shot of his manness??? That's just kind of weird. :rolleyes: LOL
 
Thanks everyone!

All the pics are of my male except for the first one. That’s my striped amel female.

LOL. Actually when I first took him out to take pics he started waiving his tail in the air… so I thought why not get some easy pics. :D
 
Cody, Any time you feel like visiting Boston just let me know, you can stay with me and can take a whole lot of pictures of my geckos in exchange for Room & Board!

You take GREAT pictures!
 
Hehe. . . sounds good Jeanne. Now do I get to camp out in your herp room with all the geckos? LOL.

Ok, but you should know, that my geckos are trained in martial arts and are prepared to defend themselves against anyone trying to take them against MY will...LMAO!!!

How did you know what I’d do? LOL. Since I’m so nice I’ll take pics of your geckos, print them out, cut them out and put them in your tubs. Then I’ll take the geckos and leave you the copies . :rofl:
 
For some reason I am picturing your gecko impersonating that Guinea pig on Dr. Doolittle saying, "I have just been violated!"
Nice clarity though, what kind of camera?

Oh, you are BAD!!!!
 
Thanks Brian. I used a Nikon CoolPix 4500. I just zoomed in all the way with the macro setting and flash on and snapped away. I didn’t use any additional lenses, just pure camera. :)
