    I might be getting one - OPINIONS WANTED

    Hello, I am back on the site. Around the time I left, I was having trouble with my dial-up connection. A while after, I got my old computer back and a wireless internet connection, so no more internet problems. After that, though, I didn't really have anything to ask in the forums so I didn't...

    Aaargh

    My internet speed these days is horrible. Can't even log in to any of my profile pages without being timed back off again before I get the opportunity to do anything. I am lucky to even be typing this entry, though if I am ever able to post it, it may yet be something that I was lucky enough to...

    Fan-foots are getting bolder

    It has been a while since the last entry was made - not a wkile when it comes to me, but anyway... - and my last entry is still up. Oh well, I am done asking for someone else to post over my last entry. Not much has happened so far, but there have been improvements. The two fan-toed/fan-footed...

    Which lizards brumate, and how can you know?

    I have read about brumation and that certain lizards require it during the winter months. I also know that - being ectotherms - they slow down when temperatures get lower. What I want to know is this: Which lizard groups and species go through natural brumation, where they just slow down on...

    How can/do you feed your small terrestrial geckos?

    Right now I use clear glass bowls of various shapes and sizes. So far - aside from the two I always use for Pepé and Abuto - I have only used a couple of the larger bowls: one with a typical semi-circular shape and equal proportion of height and width/depth, and one odd cone-shaped funnel dish...

    Frozen crickets

    Yep. Here is yet another entry. I was going to let someone else post an entry to replace mine on GU's community page but I thought of something else I want to type about that happened this morning so you are going to have to put up with it :nana: You don't like it, then start posting entries ;-)...

    Doesn't anyone else type in their blog?

    I mean, really. My last blog entry has been up there on the site's community page for a week and a half now and no one else's entries have replaced it. I am not sure how I like being put in the spotlight for all that time...at least it is good for publicity. So, what has been going on lately...

    Quetzal sure is growing

    I noticed this morning when I went into the greenhouse to check on Quetzal that he or she (still can't tell which) has grown a lot since I got him/her in late September. The leaves on the plant in the vertical hexagon take I have set up are starting to droop like a weeping willow from him/her...

    A funny thing happened last night...

    I am typing another entry partly to hide my previous one, which was being shown at the bottom of the community index page, and partly because I thought what I wanted to type next was cool and funny, so I wanted to type about it. Last night I came home from Ottawa with two dozen 1/4 sized...

    When "fine" is not good enough

    My first entry on Geckos Unlimited will be a post that I made last night but that I decided to delete afterward. It is more of a rant than something that could be posted in a public help forum anyway so it belongs here instead. I realize that this entry may be publicized on the site's home page...

    Two geckos I don't have a species name for

    Here are three photos of the two new geckos I got on Monday (Jan 3rd). The first photo was taken with my cellphone because my digital camera wasn't available when I saw the opportunity to take the photo. The second and third photos were taken with my digital camera. The second photo was not of a...

BLACK PEARL It is called a "Black Pearl" morph and apparently there are only 13 of them in existence right now, selling for prices around $3,000. Has anyone else heard of this?

    Ichneumon wasps

    Someone I know from another online board asked about how to keep an Ichneumon wasp. I wasn't that successful with Google the first time around so I figured you guys could help me out. Has anyone on here ever kept one before? If not, could anyone provide some sources of information on keeping...

    Canadian breeders at HAMM expo?

    I am wondering if there will be any Canadians going to the HAMM expo in Germany this September. I understand this expo is one of the bigger events brought up on the board and I also know I have seen a few members here from Canada. If you are going to the expo and you are from Canada, I have a...

    Enter Bahamut, my leopard gecko

    Hey board, This is where I will introduce my two leopard geckos and post pictures of them. I got my first leopard gecko Bahamut from a local gecko & snake breeder when I was still in high school. That would make him atleast 8 years old but I am willing to bet he is quite a bit older, more like...

    Oceanic/Polynesian geckos

    Hey guys, I wasn't sure whether this would go in the n00b central or the Gecko ID forum but since I am still very much a n00b ro this board I thought I would place it here. Plus it saves me from looking unexpectedly stupid. Anyway, two years back when I was still going to university in...

    My introduction

    Hey there, I am a herp enthusiast from Ontario, Canada. I like all reptiles but geckos are my favourite so I hold a special affinity for them. Right now I have two leopard geckos and a white-lined gecko but I can see myself getting more geckos of different kinds in the near future whenever my...
