This guy was brought to me after being rescued at the Tuscon Reptile show, and he was in terrible shape. He was super skinny, dehydrated and covered in bite wounds. Well I am amazed the gecko lived past the 1st week and now it is time to show him off.

If you look close you can see some scars here and there. He is actually cool with being handled for some reason, this guy doesn't even gape. I am happy to see him so well recovered :)

Nice job getting him out of that situation. I'm sure he'll do very well with you.

You should name him "Wishbone" since he's got a wishbone on his forehead.

"What's the story, Wishbone?"

(Anyone? Anyone?)

Very nice. At first glance I didn't think that was a Tokay, considering your hands are free of bite marks and blood! :laugh:

Good for you for helping him out! He's still pretty skinny, but that should change with time and food. :)

If you haven't already, I'd get a stool sample checked, wcs are usually loaded with parasites.
