Default Cave Gecko Pics! WOOHOOO!
Ok, so I walked into the pet store the other day and I saw these there. They were so cute and well taken care of as far as I could tell. They are wild little things. I am curious if you know what species they are? Are they luii? That's my guess anyhow. Hope you like the pics!

I would say these are G.hainanensis.

Normally the bodies of g.luii are more longisch and the coulor is also different from g. hainanensis. I`am quite sure that you`ve got G.hainanensis but for a better distinction you`ve to ask more experienced people than me

Yeah, the luii have a totally different body type. Once you see each one it's very easy to tell.
