They look great Tyler! Be sure not to clear out the entire population though

Just be careful about getting more then you can handle at once. I usually only start with 1-2 of an animal until I know what I'm doing.

If you're going to collect that many geckos, please, don't take the gravid ones.

yeah made sure I had enough space and time to take care of all of them. I have had banded geckos for a verry long tome so I'm verry fimilar with their needs.

The thing with the ones that are gravid right now, is there will be less hatchlings for next year. This is the point Kevin was talking about.

Pretty sure you should not reintroduce back into the wild, lest you infect wild ones with new parasites. They are very stunning!

I understand I'l let some of the gravid females go i just want to keep one or two.

Cool, just don't want you to kill off the population

Are you still the guy for banded gecko's

My banded gecko "Danno" died about 2 months ago, and I have never had a pet I have been so attached to in all my life. He started out as my son's, but with him being in school, homework, and football, somehow I started to take over as his new buddy. After about a year he got really sick, and for 2 nights I stayed up with him all night, and he just kinda stared at me, laying right next to me and died. I'm not an emotional person, and definately not a crier...but I was that day. I have been trying to find another banded but haven't been able to, only leopard(I like the little, friendly banded) and then I saw your post. If you can still find them, can you find one for me? I know he won't be Danno, but I'm sure we'll get along great!!:main_yes:

I'm not the guy who posted a few years ago about bandeds but I have 5 banded eggs in the incubator and live on the east coast.

3) Where did you collect them?

4) Did you exceed the legal limit?

Knock Knock! Who's there? Arizona Game and Fish Department!
