How do I

[lazzara8478]

Find out how old my Geckos are?
when I got them from Petco now long ago they were babies but deff not hatchlings...any way to guess???

post a pic and maybe we can give you an estimate but most juvies in stores are around a few months old. I've seen hatchlings that look like they are two weeks old.. I would take the time you've had him/her and add 2-4 months.

Do these help? I guess it would also help to say I have small hands...Im 5'3 and wear a 7 shoe so you can guess how small that would make my hands....
My purchase Date of Wyatt, My pattenless, was Feb 17, 2007. Sophie was Purchased the next day...both from the same Petco.

Here is Wyatt...Very recent pics..all within this week.

And Here is Sophie, she isint as easy to get ahold of so not alot of pics of me holding she...shes super relaxed when held...just the initial grabbing shes not fond of.

heres my hubby holding her

The first one looks like she is growing a new tail? The second one looks alright though. I have no idea how old..

It is so difficult to tell. My guess would be Wyatt is between 3 months and 6 months. Sophie seems to be maybe 1 month to 3 months, but on the skinny side. I could be way off, but even if I am right on, that is still a wide range. Weight and length would help too....

I'll have to get some length measurements...
Yea Sophie is a looks a little skinny there...most days she looks filled out though shes still on the smaller side...she eats like a horse too
