Hi there,
I realise this forum is concerned with gecko keeping and husbandry but I wonder if anyone will be able to help me with my concerns over some southern leaf tails that have moved in to my garage/laundry. I am newly arrived from UK and living on the central coast of NSW so have not had too much experience with reptiles.
Basically, about 8 weeks ago, 2 geckos took up residence in the alluminium sink in my laundry. I thought "great, that will help to keep down cockroaches and other pests" and decided to leave them there. They were joined by a third, smaller leaf-tail after a couple of weeks.
I assumed they were climbing out of the sink to hunt at night and sheltering there during the day. I thought that geckos would be able to scale the sides of the sink without any problem but I have to say that I have never seen them leave the sink.
Today I found the smaller gecko dead and I wonder if I should move the remaining 2 out of there.
Would be grateful for any advice suggestions...
Thanks,
Dan
