a note of concern for this gecko: reptiles are not able to digest dairy, that stuff on the plate looks a lot like icecream

Ackshally, I think the Geico Gecko is modeled on a Day gecko.

Oh hey! I saw this post and thought, what? I've seen this before! It was months ago! Why are you reposting the gecko? ...aaaaand then I realized I'd seen it before 'cause it's from National Geographic, and that's where I work. Heh.

Oh. That says Dessert, not Desert. My brain fixed it for me.

I love these little guys.

I have geckos (not these pretty, bright day geckos) all over my house. They're so cute, and they like the laser spot toy better than my cats do.

EEEK! DAY GECKO! I luff them. The next critter I get is going to be a day gecko of some kind. They eat nectar and fruit in the wild as well as insects, which explains this one’s love for sugary treats!

I used to work at a pet store that had gargoyle geckos (not quite as pretty as day geckos, but they’re larger and hardier) and we had one that would jump out of his cage when you opened it so he could sit on your shoulder. He loved hanging out on our shoulders He would also lick fruit baby food off our fingers. He was great and I was sad when we sold him.
