Day geckos and Zebra finches

paulstephen Aug 01, 2003 01:22 PM

I have an enclousure that is 4 feet high, three feet wide and two and a half feet deep. My question is, could i keep a pair of giant day geckos (or a larger species of day geckos) a a zebra finch in the same enclosure? Would the geckos harass the finch? I know all about mixing species, but my dad is a vet, and we would take all the proper quarintine procedures. Thank you

1. Giant day geckos are the largets day geko available that is relitivly common.
2. its not a matter of quarintine but the extra stress put on the animals. Day gecko skin is also very delicate and even holding them can tear their skin. If the bird didnt want the gekos there it could probibly get rid of them pretty easily.

In other words I wouldnt do it but if it works out n theyre all fine then great.
