Hey Quick Question For You!

[modestmouse]

What would I call it when my baby gecko goes from having the... I suppose you'd say straight, tail... but not exactly straight umm like... not ribbed? If that makes sense... anyways goes from having a regular tail to a ribbed tail? Is the tail that geckos have when they get older called ribbed? Or is there a more proper term for it? Sorry, I know I sound stupid, but I am so excited! I looked at Stogey today & his tail is so fat & ribby! It was never like that before! He's growing! AND FAST!

Oh yeah, as they age, the tail does look "ribbed." Glad to hear he is fat and happy!

 

[modestmouse]

haha fat & happy indeed! But is that the correct term? That's what I was really asking =P

 

[fallen_angel]

Well in all reality, I have never heard anyone use that term, but is it a good term to describe how it looks? yes

 

[modestmouse]

haha thanks! what do you call it?

 

[fallen_angel]

Well I guess I have never actually described the tail in such a way before, but if I did want to describe it, I would say ribbed as well most likely
