Talking We found these two what are they?

We found 2 geckos in our camper van when we got home to NSW, they either went inside the camper in Bundaberg QLD or on our way home we stopped in Glen Innes NSW. We feed them crickets and have had them for about 3 weeks now. I would like to know what type they are if any one knows?

PS: we cant release them because they would die, I have never once seen a gecko before we went to QLD and it gets might cold where I live.

I can only tell you two things and neither of those things are what species they are.
1.They are a nocturnal species you can tell by the vertical eye slits.
2. They are obviously arboreal because it seemed to be sticking to the glass quite well so make sure they have lots of climbing space.

Sorry, i can't tell you what species they are.

They look like Spiny-Tailed geckos.

These geckos are found at high densities around Bundaberg, particularly on the coast. You will find them under pretty much any log or tree you care to look under/in around Bagara and Mon Repos. Were you camping in these locations? They occur as far south as Coff's harbour in NSW. They are an introduced species and not native.

I've kept H. frenatus before, and that's what they look like to me, too.
