I've created a monster...

...NARBC show this weekend in Arlington, TX. The "plan" was to only purchase drygoods I needed to restock. My wife is an enabler :yikes: :shock: :biggrin:, via Joe Hupp. Crummy, low light, iPhone shots. May get better photos tomorrow if time. Male top image, female bottom.





Jon and Joe...if you're lurking, it was great chatting with you guys! Same for Nathan, Scott, & Larry (Austin Lizard Connection) and Mike (AlphaGeckos).

Let me clarify in that my wife is the "monster" that I've created. She was supposed to be my voice of no more herps. She saw the robertmertensi and gave me the "look", which spurred a whirlwind of thoughts in my head of shifting cages about, tearing some down to renovate, and getting these guys set up. I sound like I'm complaining, but I'm not - setting up habitats is actually a very relaxing process for me, my little slice of the world, all in the guise of making my little scale babies happy.

As mentioned, I managed some better, albeit quick photos.

Here's the pair, chilling on Philodendron sp. var: Moonlight.
The first 2 are of the male. Both are "comfortable" enough for gentle handling and as you can see in the first male photo, not shy about taking food by hand. The female did the same, but sucked her cricket down before I could manage a photo.







Thanks again to Joe Hupp and Jon Boone for letting me monopolize their time at the show regarding these guys and just geckos in general.
