Our new gecko!

It's a real cutie, we think. About 4 months old and very friendly. Would you call it a tiger morph?

a VERY nice tiger, yes, ( almost a flame with that lighter dorsal coloration)
looks very healthy and has a great pattern, nice choice!

Thanks, I'm glad you guys think Kala/Kalo looks healthy. I got that pic when we first brought him/her home. It's not been as pretty since, we're trying not to handle it too much while it gets used to us.

A couple of questions:
Can we regulate his sleep cycle at all? I was hoping he'd wake up around eight so my son can handle him without waking him up, and maybe we could watch him eat. He seems so worn out after being handled, he goes right back to sleep.

He ate a tiny bit of baby food off my son's finger yesterday. We are trying to mix the T-Rex stuff in but it doesn't appear that he's eaten any. On the advice of the pet store we are putting him in a small terrarium at night to feed until he gets bigger. He also didn't eat the two crickets we put in there. He has pooed though, so he must have eaten recently.

Just newbie worries! Let me know if there's anything I should be concerned about with what we're doing.

Thanks!
