Mediterranean House Gecko

[cat_named_noodles]

Found this baby Mediterranean house gecko in 1" of standing water under a plant pot. It was raining and 40 degrees (F) out, so he was hardly moving. He was in there with a fellow gecko that had already drowned. I don't know how he got there and I was suprised he was alive when I found him! Besides being cold and wet, and missing half his tail, this little guy has been in some sort of scuffle. He has wounds on his hips and head that apear to be healing. I will release him tomorrow (it's supposed to stop raining and warm up a little).

I have two as pets as well, both found in Alabama, do they make any sounds while mating for you, because i've heard strange calls from my cage but im not sure if its the geckos or toads. also i have no idea to tell the sex of either, everything seems to small to even begin to sex them. I'm just really interested because not many people actually breed these geckos.

pick them up or put them in a clear container and look right before the beginning of their tail. If they are 2 bulges then its a male. if not then its a female. and yea they do make noises lol =P
