This is my first post in the Gecko fourm, usually I only stick to the Snakes. Well I have had two geckos, a white lined and golden, for about 4 months now. THey are defenitly not my favorite pets. The white lined bites like nothing else and the golden craps and pees on me. But I love reptiles so yea I take care of them. They were given to me at college by a guy I know. I took them because I figured I am the only one he knew that knows about reptiles. I am goin to school to work with them so trust me Im not just some average joe with a few lizards. So I am trying to take care of them. I have a ? among all this rambling though. I think I have read before that geckos eat thier skin when it sheds well I know mine does atleast. Is this normal? They have crickets so I know they cant be hungry. Any info yall could give me on these two species would be great.
Thanks

geckos eat their shed skin because it is very nutricious and if not eaten it is wasted.hope this helps
