A profound moment..

So, after feeding last night I was collecting crickets, and the little things weren't jumping into the cup as I wanted, so I had my hand resting down there to scare them in. Suddenly, my gecko walked up, and I thought he wanted some more crickets so I went to move. No, he put his forelegs on my hand, and stared at me. I thought this kind of wierd so I left it there, and he climbed all the way up to my elbow, and just rested there.

It was awesome.

Just sharing. :P

Awww, he was probably thinking "If I stay here, maybe...maybe he'll clean out my cage..." lol

I had just done that. Maybe he wanted his poop and dirt back?

>>I had just done that. Maybe he wanted his poop and dirt back?

We have an on going joke as to our geckos reasoning out where the poo goes after we clean it... something along the lines of "No, not in that corner, that's the waterbowl, can't put it over there, that's where I sleep... Where do I put the poo!?" on and on.

I love how tame leos can get with simple care. I am always amazed as to how friendly they will become. Of course, my man insists that the geckos only really love me and climb up on me because I am warm, heated, terrain that is soft for clawing.

Glad to hear yours is being friendly, I wish you years and years of being a gecko climbing branch.
