Green Eyed Geckos

I work at a pet store in Florida and Ive been there about 2 1/2 years. Theres a trio of green eyed geckos that has been there probably 3-4 years... NO ONE will buy them theyre mean and you never see them. I feel bad for them. Does anyone here have any? I'm thinking maybe if I get the owner to lower the price I can sell them online or something...hmmmm

wow, i just looked up a quick care sheet about them, they are mean, it says there very aggressive, no, i dont own one, and i never really heard of them, how much are they at your pet store? do they have two males housed together?

edit: does your pet store have a website?

They are rediculously mean. They have a nice set of teeth on them ( I would know

). The pet store does not have a website. The trio is a male and two females, which were all together but recently separated. I dont remember how much they are, I'll have to check and I'll post it in the next day or two when I find out.

They are awesome geckos, been on my want list for long time. Someday plan to get some for breeding. Gonna work on the tokays first

Wow, I would sit tight here because I know there have been people inquiring about these geckos on these forums. If I weren't on the opposite side of the continent from you, I would be interested, but its way too cold to ship and I'm sure there are other people with more experience than me with this species.

Can your petstore vend at any reptile shows? I would bet you could find a good home for these guys at a show and I know Florida has quite a few big ones like Daytona. ..
