Default G.luii at feeding time

Hi all,

This section seems to be getting a bit quiet, so I thought i'd add some photos of my adult pair I've had them for about 4 years now and they'll quite frequently come out for a mooch (or food!) when the lights are still on.

This is my male:



This is my female:




And the two of them sharing their dinner last week:




I hope you like them I also have another adult female, though she is newly acquired so currently in quarantine. Hopefully some day soon I can post some photos of their new, naturalistic setup Though of course, I need to finish it first...

Those are some nice looking luii. I love the shot of the one gulping down the mealworm with it's eyes closed in delight

nice pictures !
i like especially the 6th photo: both luiis staring into the food dish... do they not fight over the food (trying to catch the food from another geckoīs mouth) ?
my geckos are sometimes more interested in what is in anotherīs mouth than what is crawling before them

That's my favourite shot too - she sure enjoyed those mealworms!

They are about 6 years old so have had a fair amount of time to get used to being handled - though they were pretty placid when I first got them 4 years ago!

I've never seen them fight over food - normally when one gets the food item the other was eyeing up, they turn to look at the other gecko (almost with a look of disgust) then turn back to the food dish to get something else!

Any suggestions on how I can get mine to calm down? He tail wiggles and runs off if I go near him. Still think he's great though.
