I have been breeding geckos for many years now and I can honestly say I have NEVER had any in my room. Now...Years back when I first started breeding bearded dragons, I had a few of them in my bedroom, even tropical fish, but no geckos. I caught a pair of jeans on fire with a 100 watt heatlamp for my beardies on morning and luckily I was sleeping on the couch that morning or the smoke would have killed me! So now I RARELY use heatlamps and I don't keep things in my room, I guess it's a self-security feeling knowing that I could have died in my sleep from the mass smoke that built up from the heatlamp on the jeans (why it was on the jeans is a long story).

Funny story Leland. I once had a house with two bedrooms and a basement filled with lizards, my room was free of any pets. Now the bedroom is my only option right now unless I want to pay an extra $500 a month for a tiny room, they are killing us here in Southern California on rent prices. The house is in the works and when that comes I might just be able to add a few more genus' to the list.
In the mean time they are in these boxes that has started a new way of looking at their care, working on a climate control system for each rack/box.

Shane,
I'll take some photos of your rack too if you don't mind. I'll also send you some photos of my units as well as soon as I get the misting system completely installed. Leland

Very good shot Jerry .The way you guys catch them is killing me .I still have seen my Felinus on a couple occasions over now 8 years straight .This was in the first few days or so of having them Jerry.Is that correct?

Good to have you here Jerry, its great to see someone else excited about bowfingers.

Btw,I was not ignoring the request to show rack Marcus and Leland, its just not really photo worthy yet. I have found it better to use my time making them happy without the details and using that extra time for my family. I would hate to show`and people think why this and why that, when believe me I wish I had more time in the day for those details. Sometimes making time for what was once an hours work as a single takes all day to fit in...so thats another reason having them in the room can be difficult.
