    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    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.....

    =====================


    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....

Found a gecko anyone know what it is? basic care tips too.

If you're going to keep it, house it in a minnium tank of 10 gallons. Suitable substrates are sand, plantation soil with no fertelizers, fir bark chips, constructive cork, and a reptile specific carpet. Feed it small mealworms, crickets, fruitflies, and even small waxworms. Give it cork rounds and tiles along with slate or sandstone slabs. Offer it a food dish with crested/day gecko food (they will it it) and a shallow water dish. Temps should be 75-85 F ambient with a hotspot of 90-97 F. The heat should be from a UTH mounted on a side of the tank. For the wound, apply Silvidine on a Q-tip. No extra UV light is needed, but if you want to grow.plants, you will need a growlight made for plants. Also provide a piece of driftwood or Mopani wood for a shelter and something to climb on.
Hope this helps,
Brian
 
I am sorry to hear about your loss.
We have those little guys out here in the desert as well. It is my experience, that as long as there are people around, and warm spaces to go during the winter, these little guys can live very well in the wild.
 
Its a house gecko and they rarely live long in captivity. Will eat small bugs around the light on porches in Florida and will eat smaller lizards.
 
I have these dudes chilling all over my house. If I go out to smoke at night, I'll see them hanging around looking for their next meal. I'm in S Louisiana, and they're pretty common.
