Leos and AFT's look much different in pattern and color, and AFT's bodies are stumpier looking and such. AFT's need a higher humidity as well.

Well sit right down my wicked son
And let me tell you a story
About the boy who fell from glory
And how he was a wicked son

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am with my hand

He took his sister from his head
And then painted her on the sheets
And then rolled her up in grass and trees
And they kissed 'till they were dead

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand

Well sit right down my evil son
And let me tell you a story
About the boy who fell from glory
And how he was a wicked son

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand

Hi

I love African Fat Tailed Geckos, I have two of those.

They have even a calmer personality than L. geckos, they are great for picking up and holding and mine when I hold them don't move around as much as L. geckos. I think that you would enjoy getting one. I have one that is normal coloration and I have one that is crayon orange and white bands with a white strip going down her back.

I provide her with a moist hide in the basking area and a dry one along with the necessary things and she does just great, I have had her for two years.

Take Care, TLB
