So, having admitted in public that I am not a big fan of Gargoyle geckos, I took the next rational step... I got a pair. It doesn't have to make sense, I guess.

And yes Robin, I still think they look like fat little twelve year old children...

Here they are:

Just look around at pictures of them, it's like they're bodies stopped developing without achieving any kind of definition. The thing that persuaded me was the crazy and unique colors that you can achieve with gargs. I don't mind a little "dumpy" in animal that can be brown orange red and yellow all at the same time. That's pretty frikn sweet.

Okay so I'm not a big fan either but I like things that look 'weird'. But I dunno about them looking like "fat 12yo children" *lmao*

I think the second one looks like a fat 11 year old....but I dont know if I'd go as far as saying 12! lol:p

I really do find them a very personable species. I know some people have some gargs that are a little on the aggressive side but all of mine are sweet as pie. They are less jumpy than cresties, my male likes to climb up my arm to my shoulder and hang out there while I clean his cage. They're very chill geckos. They are also very curious; mine inspect everything in their cages after its been cleaning, walking around like they're checking to make sure I put their stuff back in the right places. :main_laugh:

Very easily kept, attractive animals. A+ in my book.

Beautiful Gargs :)

I got my first two, Fiona and Layla, in late september, fell in love with them, and am expanding on my gargs more than my cresteds! Now I have 5, and should get more at the next show ;) Good luck, they're just as addicting as cresteds and other rhacs
